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

Spendesk carries 10 GitHub stars across 39 public repos, with 1 repositories active in the last 90 days and 0 external contributors on record. Yoast shows 3,439 stars across 78 public repos, 12 active in the last 90 days and 21 external contributors.
