IFTTT vs Userlike

Developer ecosystem comparison across GitHub activity, SDKs, documentation, community, reach and momentum.

IFTTT (Automations for business and home. 1,000+ of your favorite apps, services and devices. Save time and get more done.) and Userlike both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

IFTTT (rank #430) holds a narrow lead over Userlike (rank #569) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (40 vs 35). The gap of 5 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On code quality (the state of repositories, tests, releases and polish), IFTTT is slightly ahead of Userlike. On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Userlike is ahead of IFTTT. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), IFTTT is ahead of Userlike. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), IFTTT is clearly ahead of Userlike. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Userlike is 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. Userlike shows 38 stars across 14 public repos, 3 active in the last 90 days and 3 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but IFTTT's footprint is roughly 402.8x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.

IFTTT is the stronger read for anyone weighting reach. Userlike looks better where education 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.
