## Version Usage Data Sources

1. NPM Downloads Analysis
- Use `npm-stat.com` for historical download data by version
- NPM API endpoint: `https://api.npmjs.org/versions/{package-name}`
- Tools like `npm-api` can programmatically fetch version distributions
- Example query: `https://api.npmjs.org/downloads/point/last-month/@angular/core`

2. GitHub Repository Data
- GitHub API to analyze package.json files
- Tools like `libraries.io` track dependency versions
- Repository search for version tags/releases
- Dependabot alerts by version

Notes:
- Versions based on current LTS/stable releases
- Priority influenced by npm downloads, GitHub stars, enterprise adoption
- Consider security updates and EOL dates when planning support
