Is there any way to page through the data > (e.g. https://dev.socrata.com/docs/paging.html#2.1)? For most bits of data, yes. Although I haven't used limit/offset style pagination as that doesn't perform particularly well. The Guix Data Service web pages should help with how to use the API, so you can look at how the packages page handles pagination for example: https://data.guix.gnu.org/revision/c4025af8c11c3e9ea0c2747b6c475c916fb61d80/packages > 2.

I think the counting methadolody is a bit different to what's currently used though. 1: https://data.guix.gnu.org/revision/c4025af8c11c3e9ea0c2747b6c475c916fb61d80.json 2: https://data.guix.gnu.org/repository/1/branch/master/latest-processed-revision.json > 3. Is there any way to get the "supported-systems" info of a package? The value of that specific field isn't recorded, but you could look at the derivations of the package, then just find the systems, that should be pretty close: https://data.guix.gnu.org/revision/c4025af8c11c3e9ea0c2747b6c475c916fb61d80/package/0ad/0.0.26-alpha.json Thanks, Chris
