Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
No setup required, just download the CSV file and open it in any text editor or spreadsheet application.
programming-languages-csv is exactly what it sounds like: a simple, downloadable list of programming languages, pulled from Wikipedia and saved as a plain spreadsheet file. If you've ever needed a ready-made list of language names for a dropdown menu, a data analysis project, or just to browse what's out there, this saves you the trouble of scraping Wikipedia yourself. The file is in CSV format, which is just a plain-text spreadsheet that opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or any text editor. Each row represents one programming language. There's no software to install or configure, you just download the file and use it however you like. This would be handy for anyone building a developer-facing product. Say you're creating a coding profile platform and need users to select their languages from a list, or you're doing research on trends across language ecosystems and need a starting dataset. Instead of manually typing out names or writing a script to collect them, you can grab this file and be done in seconds. The README doesn't go into detail about how the data was fetched, how often it's updated, or exactly which fields are included beyond the language names. So if you need metadata like language paradigms, creation dates, or authors, you'd likely need to supplement this with another source. It's a straightforward utility project, a small time-saver for anyone who needs a clean list without building one from scratch.
A simple downloadable CSV file containing a list of programming languages pulled from Wikipedia, ready to use for dropdowns, data analysis, or any project needing a language reference list.
