Frequently asked questions

What does the installs number mean?

It is the total install count reported for the extension, the standard measure of how widely adopted it is.

Can I focus on one category or topic?

Yes. Use a search keyword, a category such as `Linters` or `Machine Learning`, or both together to narrow the results.

Can I find the publisher and their repository?

Yes. Each record includes the publisher name, display name and domain, plus the source repository link when the publisher provides one.

How fresh is the data?

Installs, ratings and version details are read live at run time, so each record reflects the listing at the moment of the run (see observedAt).
