How many people use jotai?
npm counted 9,453,972 downloads of jotai 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 9.45M look like real installs. At this scale most of them come from CI, builds and other packages that depend on jotai, so the number of people behind them is far smaller.
Is jotai still maintained?
Most likely yes, going by its releases. The latest version, 3.0.1, came out on Sep 29, 2026. The last 12 months saw 16 stable releases, typically 17 days apart, plus 2 pre-releases. It was first published on Aug 11, 2020. npm lists 2 maintainers.
Is jotai still used?
Downloads with publish spikes removed are up 53% over 3 months and up 273% over 11 months. For scale, the median of the 269 packages we track, which lean towards today's most downloaded, is up 157% over 11 months, so this one is ahead of that. Last week, 90% of downloads above the crawler floor were on major version 2, not the latest one; the most used single version was 2.20.3, with 13%. Weekdays get 1.8× the downloads of weekends, which fits people at work, though CI follows the same rhythm. Crawlers account for about 2,354 downloads a week, roughly 11 per version.
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.
