Compare package download counts

[bechir]

Hi,
It could be very interesting to add a "Compare package download counts over time" like npmtrends.com

Actually we have only install statistics for a package, but we can have a comparator also like Symfony vs Laravel vs Zend...

For fun and to test things I've POC https://github.com/94noni/packagist-stats

@94noni are you planning to add your POC on this repo?

[94noni]

@bechir hey, for now I have no plans and I think it should be asked first to @Seldaek if such feature can be useful on the website http://packagist.org
if so, we could take inspiration on this old poc to implement a first version :)

[Seldaek]

Yeah I am not against having this feature but it is not something I'd prioritize for my own time for now..

The other aspect is that I'd rather not add even more charts until we have a chance to fix/modernize the current charts, as they are kinda buggy and outdated JS libs.

Perhaps it can be a symfony ux feature someone wants to contribute to via https://ux.symfony.com/demos/live-component/chartjs
