I don't know how trademarking naming works, or if they would even care, but Trex is already a big Composite Decking manufacturer. They have trex.com.

IANAL but from my little bit of research on trademarks it's not the same industry, so not likely a confusion... Don't think anyone would think a company that creates Deck and Software were the same. Kinda like they have Docker containers and Dockers pants.

That's not how trademarking works. They are in quite different industries, there should be little to no confusion that a package manager is going to ship a deck to you.

Trex is not a company; Trex is a product under the crewdevio organization on GitHub.
