pypi package · declared by 153 of 2,343 sampled repositories · graph computed 2026-08-24

Counted from the runtime dependencies public repositories declare — not the resolved tree. A transitive dependency is a consequence; a declared one is a choice. Development dependencies are excluded because they repeat across every project in a language regardless of what is being built.

Every pair above is counted from the same evidence: repo manifest.

Used instead

candidates · shares a neighbourhood and refuses to co-occur

No alternative measured. A pair qualifies only if it shares a neighbourhood and then fails to appear together against an expectation that it would — and almost everything that shares a neighbourhood does appear together. That is the test working, not a gap in the data: similarity alone would list this tool’s closest neighbours as alternatives, and most of them are things it is used with.
