IFTTT (rank #430) holds a narrow lead over Pendo (rank #625) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (40 vs 33). The gap of 7 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Pendo is ahead of IFTTT. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), IFTTT is clearly ahead of Pendo. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Pendo 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. Pendo shows 267 stars across 134 public repos, 18 active in the last 90 days and 6 external contributors.
