Discord vs Smartsheet

Discord (A new way to chat with your communities and friends. Discord is the easiest way to communicate over voice, video, and text.) and Smartsheet (Opensource SDKs for the Smartsheet collaborative work management platform) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Discord (rank #103) holds a modest lead over Smartsheet (rank #338) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (55 vs 43). The gap of 12 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

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

Discord carries 28,570 GitHub stars across 327 public repos, with 36 repositories active in the last 90 days and 41 external contributors on record. Smartsheet shows 150 stars across 11 public repos, 8 active in the last 90 days and 15 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but Discord's footprint is roughly 190.5x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.
