edX vs Omnisend

edX (Online learning at https://edx.org, powered by the Open edX platform https://openedx.org) and Omnisend (Omnisend’s AI-powered platform helps ecommerce brands centralize email, SMS, and popups with automation, segmentation, and AI content tools.) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

edX (rank #338) holds a modest lead over Omnisend (rank #625) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (43 vs 33). The gap of 10 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On code quality (the state of repositories, tests, releases and polish), edX is clearly ahead of Omnisend. On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), edX is slightly ahead of Omnisend. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Omnisend is ahead of edX. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Omnisend is slightly ahead of edX.

edX carries 392 GitHub stars across 250 public repos, with 52 repositories active in the last 90 days and 22 external contributors on record. Omnisend shows 5 stars across 18 public repos, 9 active in the last 90 days and 4 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but edX's footprint is roughly 78.4x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.

edX is the stronger read for anyone weighting code quality. Omnisend looks better where reach is the deciding factor. The table below breaks the scores down pillar by pillar; the linked profiles cover the underlying repos, docs and community signals in full.
