On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Quo is slightly ahead of Open edX. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Open edX is clearly ahead of Quo. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Quo is clearly ahead of Open edX. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Open edX is clearly ahead of Quo.

Open edX carries 10,654 GitHub stars across 186 public repos, with 100 repositories active in the last 90 days and 91 external contributors on record.
