Stream (rank #317) holds a narrow lead over Yext (rank #510) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (44 vs 37). The gap of 7 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

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

Stream carries 35,664 GitHub stars across 487 public repos, with 84 repositories active in the last 90 days and 44 external contributors on record. Yext shows 296 stars across 171 public repos, 12 active in the last 90 days and 9 external contributors.
