About this data
This page presents a novel metric: the temporal drift of dependency installation success rates for open-source projects. While dependency versions are often monitored, their actual installability in real-world scenarios is not. We measure the median success rate, expressed as a percentage, for each project on a daily basis.
Our data is gathered by attempting to install all declared dependencies for a broad spectrum of open-source projects. This provides an empirical view of the stability and maintainability of these project ecosystems. Understanding these trends is vital for developers looking to build on stable foundations and for users who rely on the smooth operation of their software.
The insights derived from this metric highlight the practical challenges and evolution of dependency management within the open-source landscape. This information is not typically available through standard package manager dashboards or project homepages, offering a unique perspective on software health.
Why this isn't published anywhere else
While some research touches on dependency evolution and stability, no sources explicitly track and publish the temporal drift of open-source project dependency installation success rate as a recurring metric or dedicated dashboard.
