Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

I have been using this plugin for a month and it has really helped when you just need to try a small css snippet or two. I can quickly check out the code and get the site running without any trouble. I have not tried the JS side as yet as I have not needed it.
