Mollie vs SAP

Mollie (Building a payments and banking stack for makers.) and SAP (SAP SE, a global software company, is one of the largest vendors of ERP and other enterprise applications.) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Mollie and SAP sit at essentially the same overall ecosystem score (54), which is unusual and worth reading through the pillars below.

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

Mollie carries 2,571 GitHub stars across 85 public repos, with 30 repositories active in the last 90 days and 26 external contributors on record. SAP shows 12,850 stars across 309 public repos, 96 active in the last 90 days and 60 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but SAP's footprint is roughly 5.0x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.

Mollie is the stronger read for anyone weighting education. SAP looks better where momentum 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.
