How many people actually use prisma?
npm counted 25,312,523 downloads of prisma in the last 7 days. That count includes every tarball fetch: registry mirrors, security scanners, CI pipelines and crawlers as well as people. humanloads estimates that about 25,293,721 of them (likely range 25,283,662–25,303,780) were real human installs, with high confidence. That puts less than 1% of npm's weekly count down to robots.
Is prisma still maintained?
Most likely yes, going by its releases. The latest version, 8.0.0-rc.30, came out on Nov 3, 2026. The last 12 months saw 20 stable releases, typically 8 days apart, plus 569 pre-releases. It was first published on Jun 3, 2016. npm lists 1 maintainer.
Is prisma still used?
Downloads with publish spikes removed are up 55% over 3 months and up 255% over 11 months. Last week, 44% of downloads above the crawler floor were on major version 7, not the latest one; the most used single version was 6.19.3, with 24%. Weekdays get 1.22× the downloads of weekends, so there is no clear work-week rhythm. Crawlers account for about 18,802 downloads a week, roughly 2 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 an honest confidence level.
