The Almanac

What happened in the Shopify App Store, month by month, back to 2009.

Each issue is a deterministic reconstruction from per-app launch dates and review history: how many apps launched that month, how many reviews were posted, the category breakdown, and how it compared to the month before. Fully aggregate, no individual app data.
