Fig. 1 |. Package numbers and usage.
a, Package count per language ecosystem (saturated colors on the lower portions of the bars represent explicitly life-science-related packages). b, Distribution of per-package downloads, separated by language ecosystem. The term “other” encompasses all packages that do not fall into one of the specific categories named. White dots represent the mean; dark bars represent the interval between upper and lower quartiles. c, Comparison of the number of explicitly life-science-related packages in Bioconda with that in Debian Med (https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med), Gentoo Science Overlay (category sci-biology; https://github.com/gentoo/sci), EasyBuild (module bio; https://easybuilders.github.io/easybuild), Biolinux, Homebrew Science (tag bioinformatics; https://brew.sh), GNU Guix (category bioinformatics; https://www.gnu.org/s/guix), and BioBuilds (https://biobuilds.org). The lower graph shows the project age since the first release or commit. Statistics obtained 25 October 2017.
