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, vite is ahead of parcel by about 608×: about 258M vs 424K a week. npm's raw counts are 257,763,016 for vite and 424,021 for parcel, 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.
