Adyen vs Pinterest

Developer ecosystem comparison across GitHub activity, SDKs, documentation, community, reach and momentum.

Adyen and Pinterest (Pinterest's Open Source Projects) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Adyen (rank #165) holds a modest lead over Pinterest (rank #430) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (51 vs 40). The gap of 11 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On code quality (the state of repositories, tests, releases and polish), Adyen is slightly ahead of Pinterest. On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Pinterest is slightly ahead of Adyen. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Pinterest is ahead of Adyen.

Adyen carries 2,684 GitHub stars across 65 public repos, with 49 repositories active in the last 90 days and 39 external contributors on record. Pinterest shows 30,737 stars across 98 public repos, 37 active in the last 90 days and 22 external contributors.
