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

Salesforce carries 68,892 GitHub stars across 417 public repos, with 75 repositories active in the last 90 days and 6 external contributors on record. Zeplin shows 1,460 stars across 57 public repos, 8 active in the last 90 days and 4 external contributors.
