Can a Pyramid app's "root" directory be renamed later without consequence?

[Zak]

When you start a new Pyramid app, it creates a directory with the capitalized name of your project like "MyProject". Can this later be renamed to something like "web" or will this break functionality?

[RedBaron]

I don't think it should break the functionality as long as you change the name at all relevant places (config files, code fragments etc.). Take care about modifying the setup.py file as well if you plan to change the distributed package name too
