[Feature request]: list dependants #26

Open andrewrk opened 1 week ago

zigistry already lists dependencies - things that a package depends on. One thing that would be really helpful is to list the other relationship: the set of packages that depend on it. This is also, arguably, the most useful sorting filter to use - you sort descending by how many packages depend on it, and there you have the most popular packages, not by star count, but by a more realistic measure of what is actually being used in practice.

Thank you for opening this issue! As I mentioned here, I'm currently waiting for the PR for Zon data parsing support to be merged into the Zig language repository. Once that's done, I'll be adding support for the dependency list in Zigistry. It will be much easier to handle all GitHub workflows directly in Zig rather than using js there. Thanks again for bringing this up!
