pandas-dev/pandas
Rank not captured·Top 100·All-time stars·Cached ranking snapshot·
Flexible and powerful data analysis / manipulation library for Python, providing labeled data structures similar to R data.frame objects, statistical functions, and much more
First read
Strong enough to justify a deeper source review
pandas-dev/pandas looks visible enough to matter, active enough to trust for a next pass, and adopted enough to merit checking maintainers, releases, and real integration cost in the source repository.
Visible
49.5K public stars in the current GitStar snapshot.
Recognizable in the ecosystem
Active
Last commit Aug 15, 2026.
Fresh activity
Adopted
pypi gives the strongest production-style signal.
7.1M/week
Confidence
One or more key signals are partial, so GitStar keeps the interpretation conservative.

Method note
Balanced means GitStar sees both meaningful package adoption and enough current star velocity or scale to avoid reading the repo as purely niche. Compare it against other Python repos before treating stars as a moat.

About This Page
This page provides a quick overview of pandas-dev/pandas based on GitStar's cached data. The signal chart reconstructs approximate checkpoints from current stars plus cached daily, weekly, and monthly star deltas, so it is best read as directional context rather than as a precise historical audit log.
