A POSSIBLE BUILD DIRECTION

From prompt to prototype.

Outcode’s editorial suggestions for this idea. Adapt the scope to your skills, available data and the people you want to help.

A small first version

List direct dependencies of a public sample project and display dated maintenance signals such as releases, open issues and maintainer notices.

How to test it

Check packages with stable but infrequent releases as well as archived projects. Do not label a dependency abandoned based only on a quiet commit history.

A direction for a larger project

Combine multiple explainable signals and let maintainers correct the assessment. Compare warnings against documented project status rather than popularity.
