Limits of this result

  • Google Trends measures relative search attention, not customers, revenue or willingness to pay.
  • Supply counts active repositories matching the displayed GitHub topic and phrase queries; unmatched and closed-source competitors are outside this coverage.
  • Repository density and search attention are separate observations. Neither proves commercial competition or demand.

Search interest measures attention, not paying customers. Classification thresholds are published heuristics and still require empirical calibration.
