Use cases

• Developer tool market research — track download trends, rating distributions, and category growth over time
• VC / analyst intelligence — monitor which plugins are gaining traction in the IntelliJ ecosystem
• Competitive analysis — compare plugin metrics against your own or competitor offerings
• IDE extension discovery — build curated lists of top-rated or trending plugins by IDE and category
• Pricing model analysis — understand the free vs paid vs freemium split across categories

Notes

• Data is sourced from the public JetBrains Plugin Marketplace REST API — no authentication required
• Vendor email is only returned when the vendor has opted in to showing it publicly
• The compatible_products list comes from the latest plugin version's compatibility declaration
• Full catalog runs (~10,000 plugins × 2 API calls each) take roughly 60–90 minutes with default politeness delays
