🌐 UIBUILDER Stats

Thought some people might be interested in early telemetry stats regarding UIBUILDER.

These are the number of Node-RED instances that have at least 1 uibuilder or markweb node deployed grouped by host OS:

[
      { os_platform: 'linux', total_entries: 874 },
      { os_platform: 'win32', total_entries: 89 },
      { os_platform: 'darwin', total_entries: 10 },
      { os_platform: 'android', total_entries: 1 }
]

I'm a little surprised that there aren't more Mac instances.

PS: This only includes instances that are at least v7.7.0 of course. There is no record for instances less than that that haven't yet upgraded.

There are 3,102 records overall so there are over 2,000 Node-RED instances that have installed the node-red nodes but haven't used either of the 2 main nodes! Of course, they might be using it for other things such as creating HTML in Node-RED to serve up by other means.

Amusingly, perhaps this post triggered more interest? Since posting just 2 hours ago, the figures are now:

┌─────────┬─────────────┬───────────────┐
│ (index) │ os_platform │ total_entries │
├─────────┼─────────────┼───────────────┤
│ 0       │ 'linux'     │ 879           │
│ 1       │ 'win32'     │ 92            │
│ 2       │ 'darwin'    │ 10            │
│ 3       │ 'android'   │ 1             │
└─────────┴─────────────┴───────────────┘
Total uibuilder/markweb instances: 
  982 out of 3145 (31%) v7.7.0+ installed packages.

(And yes, I tidied up the query output :smiley: )

So an extra 43 instances installed (or upgraded to v7.7.0+) with an extra 8 having installed at least 1 uibuilder or markweb node.

Note that with the instance numbers still changing a fair bit, I won't really have reliable browser type numbers for a while yet. Maybe a couple of months. Remember that telemetry is only sent at most once a month and less than that if you haven't restarted Node-RED or deployed flows.
