The JupyterLab Extension Ecosystem- Trends from PyPI +GitHub

Analysis of PyPI and GitHub data shows concrete signals not vague promises: downloads, repo stars, release recency and categories are measured via BigQuery PyPI export and GitHub APIs; a standout number is 33M downloads for ipywidgets and steady monthly growth with a recent AI uptick. A daily pipeline enriches wheels with LM classification, links Snake Advisor security scores and pushes results to a public lab-extensions.dev catalog backed by Superbase; costs are modest (~$20 initial, ~$1/day, ~$4 LM) and the live install demo works.
