Recent movement and use across the technology ecosystem.

What is moving from attention into code, adoption and operation — and where do channels diverge?

GitHub and Hacker News show attention/code; npm, PyPI, Hugging Face and marketplaces approximate adoption; Docker and cross-source relationships help distinguish experimentation from operational use. Units are never summed into a universal score.

Stars and weekly downloads come from the matched panel (the same entities in both weeks), not the whole ecosystem; each KPI has its own unit.

What grew or fell this week

Latest value per entity in the last 7 days against the same entity's latest value in the prior 7. Each row has its own unit and scale; do not compare bars across registries.

Which projects show up repeatedly in the radar?

Recurrence = days on which the project appears in the 90-day window (not the number of reads). Stars are only size context — a large project is not automatically the most recurrent.

Continuous presence in the window
Leading projects appear on 90/90 days of the window. Recurrence does not differentiate them.
openclaw/openclaw★ 392K
obra/superpowers★ 298K

Stars are shown only as size context; they are not used to manufacture a recurrence ranking.

Main usage and development signals

Preview of the top 4 of each ranking — code (GitHub), package adoption (npm, PyPI) and model use (Hugging Face). Each list has its own unit and criterion; nothing is summed into a score. "View all" opens the complete served list.

Projects with the most GitHub stars

Criterion: current stars (size)

Projects that reappear most in the radar

Criterion: days in the radar over 90d (not size)

Most downloaded models on Hugging Face

Criterion: 30-day downloads (usage proxy)

How coverage is measured
Rows written by collectors. Useful for auditing coverage and cadence; it is not ecosystem growth.

How much data we have from each source

Observations written by collectors and distinct entities tracked. This measures collection cadence and coverage, not ecosystem growth — real movement is in the matched panel above.

When interest, usage and development do not move together
Technology and geography cross-signals remain available on demand without dominating the primary read.

Technologies & Ecosystem Health

Four newly-connected sources, each with its own unit, window and maturity criterion. A reading appears here only once it clears its family's minimum history/coverage gate.

macOS/dev distribution (Homebrew)

Homebrew installs over the last 30 days. Measures reach inside the macOS/dev ecosystem, not overall market share.

Homebrew · installs (30d)
562.8K
installs/30d
  • Homebrew · installs (30d): 27 days of history · 10 tracked entities · latest reading: 21h ago · gate: ≥14d, ≥5 · reason: mature
Developer attention & friction (StackExchange)

Question volume and unanswered rate across tracked tags. Measures attention and friction, not adoption.

No mature metrics in this category yet.

  • StackExchange · question volume: 11 days of history · 11 tracked entities · latest reading: 20h ago · gate: ≥14d, ≥3 · reason: insufficient history
  • StackExchange · unanswered rate: 11 days of history · 11 tracked entities · latest reading: 20h ago · gate: ≥14d, ≥3 · reason: insufficient history
Cloud price context

Average list price across tracked SKUs (AWS, Azure). Cost context, never a trend — no delta is computed here.

Cross-source relations across these four families: not yet enabled — no family has cleared a maturity review for a derived relation.

GitHub code
Size, recurrence and languages are complementary evidence. Open to compare rankings without treating them as the same metric.

GitHub · size and recurrence

Two distinct views: largest repositories by current stars and projects recurring most often in the 90-day window.

Most recurrent · 90d

All present on 90/90 days: recurrence does not differentiate these projects; the order below follows stars.

Community attention
Hacker News measures discussion and editorial attention. Open to inspect stories; do not treat points/comments as adoption.
Developer tools
Marketplaces show presence and accumulated use; the source does not always provide a comparable recent window.

Developer tools

Accumulated inventory of each collected marketplace: installs and rating are adoption context. Each marketplace has its own scale and ranking — do not compare figures across them.

How to read this: GitHub and Hacker News measure interest/attention; npm, PyPI, Hugging Face and marketplaces approximate adoption through different signals. Units are not summed into a universal score and are not treated as equivalent.
