Python Packages – with their popularity and how they're commonly used together
- robertlacok 6y agoHey, I found a cool BigQuery dataset with files from GitHub and got really curious about which packages are often used together. I joined it with download counts to estimate popularity. You can start with a cool package like PyTorch: https://package.wiki/torch https://package.wiki/torch or Spacy: https://package.wiki/spacy https://package.wiki/spacy and explore what people use them with. Let me know what you think and if you stumble upon some curious insights!
- Equiet 6y agoLooks really good, but how is this different from PyPI? Is it just the design or are there more features planned?
- robertlacok 6y agoPyPI is the ground truth for a lot of the official information about packages, and package.wiki reuses some of it (like short descriptions) from the psf BigQuery dataset. The initial idea was to do a fun data science project which builds some extra layers on top of that information - such as easier discovery, and showcase how popular the packages are. It provides an extra context, similar to what https://bundlephobia.com/ https://bundlephobia.com/ does to https://www.npmjs.com https://www.npmjs.com
