dep-rank runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 1 081 installs a week from pypi.
Rank a GitHub repo's dependents by stars or trust heuristic, and search their code
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check dep-rank every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
