I’ve been following the discussions around VS Code Marketplace analytics for a while and noticed a recurring complaint: Microsoft provides download counts, but zero data on how extensions rank for keywords over time.
I saw developers on GitHub (Issue #94744) asking for better visibility, so I decided to build VSCodeRank to solve it. Since the Marketplace API only provides "right now" snapshots, I’m polling it daily to build the historical record that's currently missing.
What it does:
Historical Tracking: See your rank trends over weeks/months.
Competitor Monitoring: Track other extensions to see if they are gaining ground on your keywords.
Email Alerts: Get notified automatically if your ranking drops.
The Tech: Python for the background polling and data processing and next.js for the frontend.
Supabase for the database, auth, and real-time updates.
I’d love to hear your feedback on the data or what features could be missing!
