I am curious
Does any other third-party developers (hobbyists) have a mechanism to track the number of installations and activity for the applications, consoles, etc. that were developed, and are willing to share those metrics.
I think every Developer would like to know users and activity on their creation
I have my application’s numbers, but no way to understand if that is significant or not !?
I developed the “ROKU Weather Station Data” viewer;
I have been working on a game-changing feature for the ROKU application and wanted a baseline installation and activity metric before the release so started down this analysis path.
Drum-roll please; here’s where we are.
The number of ROKU devices with the application installed is >10K.
Thank you to VREIHEN for developing the UDP Listener.
I think I got that wrong, sorry.
Luckily, being on ROKU I am “data rich” as it’s a professional streaming platform. Those 2 simple charts I shared are very distilled from detailed data.
I found a couple ways to track pip downloads and my wfudptools looks like it’s maybe 5-10/day with github about 5/day but who knows how many of those are bots and mirroring etc.
I wrote the WeeWX UDP station driver, not the UDP listener.
The WeeWX web site has a station map that you can search by hardware type, for those who chose to share their station location (which ironically I don’t):
I develop the PiConsole and the answer is… I have no idea . I’ve toyed in the past with adding some sort of tracking, but always been conscious of dealing with the associated privacy issues. Without any figures, I just hope it’s useful to some people!
You can do a little tracking of the last 30 days on github if you go to the Insights pseudo-tab and then the Traffic pick but I can’t find more ancient info. I can see the info for ‘my’ repos but nothing for yours. Might be owner-only information (possibly) but you might want to look into that.
