Project Name

• Read the docs.
• Make sure this is a Vite issue and not a framework-specific issue. For example, if it's a Vue SFC related bug, it should likely be reported to https://github.com/vuejs/vue-next instead.
• This is a concrete bug. For Q&A open a GitHub Discussion or join our Discord Chat Server.

You'd better do NOT add special characters in project name. This is not a good habit. A lot of tools don't support special characters in project name.

@sunkehappy 🤔yeah for that purpose can we like include validation during input from user that will be not be a big overhead I believe

[sunkehappy]

@king-11 Yeah good idea. I will create a pull request to prevent user from input special characters in project name.
