In this demonstration, we will visualise some information about the GAP packages ecosystem, using the JupyterViz package by Nathan Carter. First, we need to load this package.
LoadPackage("jupyterviz");
true
First, we read metadata for all GAP packages available in this GAP installation (145 packages are redistributed with GAP 4.10.2; the number you will see below may differ dependently on your installation).
pkgnames := SortedList(RecNames(GAPInfo.PackagesInfo));;
Length(pkgnames);
145
Now, we read an auxliary file with the necessary GAP code.
Read("../gap/packages.g");
This is the list of packages in this GAP installation, ordered by their release date.
reldates:=PackageReleaseDates();;

GAP 4.11 will introduce new field in the package metadata to specify its license using SPDX identfiers. Some packages already include this information, and even more will contain it after the next GAP release.

The next diagram shows the number of packages having a given number of authors. Most of the packages are developed collaboratively.

We finish with the map displaying GAP package development activity per country. For each package, each author gives a point to the country of their location, derived from the metadata from the latest version of their package.
