Welcome to LUI. This page is a compilation of various sources of data
concerning programming language usage. Instead of intertrepeting,
it simply provides a few metrics that might be useful to others
considering the question of language "popularity".
LUI is generated by a small and simple framework written in
Perl. It can easily be extended or modified. The source can be
downloaded here (zip).
Raw data for some or all of the below metrics can be downloaded in CSV format:

each language in the index.

Number of projects in a given language on SourceForge.
SourceForgeTopAllTime
Checks 500 of the "Top All Time" projects on
SourceForge,
and generates a metric based on the primary language used.
