How many people use eslint-visitor-keys?
npm counted 511,244,061 downloads of eslint-visitor-keys in the last 7 days. Nobody can count people exactly, npm included: it does not record who downloaded what. After removing mirror spikes and crawlers, about 511M look like real installs. At this scale most of them come from CI, builds and other packages that depend on eslint-visitor-keys, so the number of people behind them is far smaller.
Is eslint-visitor-keys still maintained?
Less clear: the last release is more than six months old. The latest version, 5.0.1, came out on Feb 20, 2026. The last 12 months saw 2 stable releases. It was first published on Nov 17, 2017. npm lists 2 maintainers.
Is eslint-visitor-keys still used?
Downloads with publish spikes removed are up 32% over 3 months and up 234% over 11 months. For scale, the median of the 384 packages we track, which lean towards today's most downloaded, is up 164% over 11 months, so this one is ahead of that. Last week, 38% of downloads above the crawler floor were on major version 3, not the latest one; the most used single version was 3.4.3, with 37%. Weekdays get 1.5× the downloads of weekends, which fits people at work, though CI follows the same rhythm. Crawlers account for about 1,291,311 downloads a week, roughly 61,491 per version.
Monthly downloads of eslint-visitor-keys
The busiest month was Oct 2026, with about 67,728,199 downloads a day once publish spikes are removed; the quietest was Dec 2025 (the holiday season), with about 18,366,748.

Whole months through Oct 31, 2026. Publish spikes are found day by day and summed per month. Real installs apply this week's crawler share to each month's downloads (the upper end also keeps the removed spikes), so they follow npm's curve rather than measure it. The change compares spike-free downloads per day.
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.
