Espruino Statistics

I was going through some stats for a talk I'm giving, and I thought you might be interested in this...

See the graph below - this shows Espruino IDE use, based on the web server's access logs - so how many times the board description files (which pins/libraries each board supports) have been downloaded from the Espruino website (don't worry, the IDE doesn't transmit any information to me at all - it just asks for the connected board's file).

Brief stats:

• In December, 37000 JSON files were downloaded - so that's the times a board has successfully connected to the IDE, and excluding all the firewalled and cached accesses.
  
• In November, more people were using ESP8266 than every Espruino board put together
  
• Only 1/3 of users had actually used an official Espruino board
  
• There are now 80,000 downloads of binary files per month
  
• 20,000 unique website visitors a month
  
• I get 500 non-spam emails a week
  
• I've written 7000 forum posts to date - that's over 5 a day, every day, for the last 3.5 years
  
• I've made over 1400 GitHub contributions in the last year
  
  

So yeah, big numbers - and it looks like it's really been picking up the last few months!
