Increase vs Yoast

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

Increase (Build your bank) and Yoast (This is where the Yoast.com team shares its public code: from our WordPress plugins to other small projects.) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Increase (rank #55) holds a modest lead over Yoast (rank #209) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (60 vs 49). The gap of 11 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

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

Increase carries 45 GitHub stars across 12 public repos, with 11 repositories active in the last 90 days and 5 external contributors on record. Yoast shows 3,439 stars across 78 public repos, 12 active in the last 90 days and 21 external contributors.
