Please show download count and star count in Composer Mgr
Posted: November 14th, 2016, 9:05 am
Currently your "Install New Composer Packages" window does not show these information:
- Download count
- Star count
- Last update
whereas the online repository does show, e.g.:
https://packagist.org/search/?q=session
https://packagist.org/packages/illuminate/session
To me download count, star count and last update is crucial to decide whether a package is robust, stable and usable in the wild or just some hobby package abandoned long time ago.
My suggestion:
Please also show these information for each package (either in list or details):
- Download count
- Star count
- Last update
In addition, an option to sort asc/desc by any of these would be awesome.
