Snapshot from the daily build of Nov 3, 2026, last 7 days of npm data. With JavaScript on, this page recomputes it live from the npm API.

How many people actually use react?

npm counted 244,554,752 downloads of react 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 244,504,260 of them (likely range 244,344,488–244,535,534) were real human installs, with high confidence. That puts less than 1% of npm's weekly count down to robots.

How the estimate works

  1. Cut the spike every new version gets from mirrors in its first days.
  2. Subtract the flat floor robots download from every version each week.
  3. Show what is left as a range, with an honest confidence level.
