Hello Vincent,

For now, the Recommendation Engine from the application (easyrec) can't
read data, we have to send data to it through its Rest API. And it can't
deal with raw data, we would have to count the number of uses of each API
and send that data to the Recommendation engine, but if we have such data I
don't think we'd need a Recommendation Engine since we would already know
the most used APIs.

The Recommendation Engine would then be more appropriate if we use it to
recommend APIs based on what happened in the wiki and not what can be found
on Github.
We could also train the engine with the APIs used by the users of the Auto
Completion Extension, and it would be easier to implement, but it would
require a "training" period with bad recommendations.

Thanks,
Yann
