Show HN: PyAtlas – Interactive map of the most popular Python packages on PyPI

PyAtlas is an interactive map of the top 10,000 most-downloaded packages on PyPI.

Each package is represented as a point in a 2D space. Packages with similar descriptions are placed close together, so you get rough clusters of the ecosystem (web, data, ML, etc.). You can: Simply explore the map, search for a package you already know, or explore points nearby to discover alternatives or related tools

Useful? Maybe, maybe not. Mostly just a fun project for me to work on. If you’re curious how it works under the hood (embeddings, UMAP, clustering, etc.), there are more details in the GitHub repo!
