Hello V-Lang - Hackdot

Why was this misspelled? Shouldn't it be Vlang (https://vlang.io/), not V-Lang?

Ok, so I am the author of the article and I wanted to put it as "V" but wasn't differentiating for example in search and "Vlang" just didn't feel good.

I kind of get what you mean, but the common practice is to spell it as Vlang, which other languages that are referred to by short names do too. Like Go, becomes Golang as oppose to Go-lang. But, we all have our preferences. Who knows, it might catch on to refer to it as V-Lang. It's your prerogative to do as you like, and it was great that you created the article and are into programming.

Yeah, still very new to all this, also it was my first posting on HN and I haven't actually received any meaningful comments on any platform or any guidance about the conventions and stuff. If you check out the article there is only 1 comments there while here it is about 170 now so I am learning a lot.
