Re: Python Packages – with their popularity and how they're commonly used together
#2Hey, 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 or 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!

#3Looks really good, but how is this different from PyPI? Is it just the design or are there more features planned?

PyPI 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/ does to https://www.npmjs.com
