Noise: the share of npm's count that mirror spikes and crawlers account for. What remains still includes CI and dependency installs.
Snapshot from the daily build of Nov 6, 2026, last 7 days of npm data. With JavaScript on, this page recomputes it live with a 12-month chart.
By real installs, next is ahead of astro by about 8.1×: about 91.6M vs 11.4M a week. npm's raw counts are 91,648,380 for next and 11,381,626 for astro, which include mirrors, scanners and crawlers. Mirror spikes and crawlers removed. CI and dependency installs still count, so this is not a head count.
How the estimate works
- Cut the spike every new version gets from mirrors in its first days.
- Subtract the flat floor robots download from every version each week.
- Show what is left as a range, with a confidence level. It still includes CI and dependency installs, so it is not a count of people.
