Description

Making new project and Saving Project As is referring only to folder name. All the rest (package.json, iOS/Android Project name) is still using 'Project' string. Would be cool if it was associated with project name or if we could update that from single entry point (like Project Properties or something on that note).

Research direction
Investigate how deco ide currently generates project files (package.json, iOS Info.plist, Android strings.xml) by looking at the repository's source code, specifically the project creation logic. Identify where the placeholder 'Project' is used and determine how to replace it with the user's folder name or a project name input. Consider how to implement a single entry point for updating the name (e.g., a Project Properties panel).
