IFTTT (Automations for business and home. 1,000+ of your favorite apps, services and devices. Save time and get more done.) and Panther Labs (Panther's mission is to make security teams smarter and faster than attackers.) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Panther Labs (rank #209) holds a modest lead over IFTTT (rank #430) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (49 vs 40). The gap of 9 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Panther Labs is slightly ahead of IFTTT. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), IFTTT is slightly ahead of Panther Labs. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Panther Labs is clearly ahead of IFTTT.

IFTTT carries 15,307 GitHub stars across 75 public repos, with 1 repositories active in the last 90 days and 2 external contributors on record. Panther Labs shows 668 stars across 25 public repos, 11 active in the last 90 days and 18 external contributors.
