Dashlane vs Open edX

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

Dashlane (Simple and secure access to all your online accounts. At work, home, and everywhere in between.) and Open edX (The community-driven, open-source project powering edX.org and thousands of other online education sites around the world.) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Open edX (rank #372) holds a narrow lead over Dashlane (rank #536) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (42 vs 36). The gap of 6 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On code quality (the state of repositories, tests, releases and polish), Open edX is clearly ahead of Dashlane. On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Dashlane is ahead of Open edX. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Open edX is clearly ahead of Dashlane. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Dashlane is clearly ahead of Open edX. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Open edX is clearly ahead of Dashlane.

Dashlane carries 1,223 GitHub stars across 46 public repos, with 5 repositories active in the last 90 days and 3 external contributors on record. Open edX shows 10,654 stars across 186 public repos, 100 active in the last 90 days and 91 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but Open edX's footprint is roughly 8.7x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.
