For this week’s #TidyTuesday I explored when APIs are added and updated in the APIs.guru directory

Code on GitHub

A plot with curved lines showing API lifecycle patterns from APIs.guru directory spanning 2015 to 2023. Each curved line connects an API’s addition date (y-axis) to its last update date (x-axis), creating flowing arcs across the plot area. Most curves are gray, but blue and orange curves highlight APIs from providers that had bulk additions or updates on the same day. Blue upward-pointing triangular markers along the bottom edge indicate days when multiple APIs from the same provider were updated simultaneously, including googleapis.com updating 219 APIs on 21 April 2023 and azure.com updating 193 APIs on 20 November 2018. Blue right-pointing triangular markers along the left edge mark days when multiple APIs from the same provider were added together, such as azure.com adding 207 APIs on 20 November 2018 and amazonaws.com adding 202 APIs on 28 February 2020.
