Vinyl‑named is a small Node.js utility for the Gulp/vinyl ecosystem that adds a customizable “named” (or custom) property to each vinyl file stream—by default the file’s basename without extension. It’s useful for build scripts that need predictable chunk or module names (e.g., when bundling with Browserify or Webpack) and can be tailored via a callback to assign any name you choose. Suitable for frontend developers and build‑tool authors who work with Gulp pipelines.
