Woo (rank #103) holds a modest lead over Perk (rank #372) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (55 vs 42). The gap of 13 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

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

Perk carries 34 GitHub stars across 25 public repos, with 5 repositories active in the last 90 days and 6 external contributors on record. Woo shows 23,045 stars across 247 public repos, 47 active in the last 90 days and 100 external contributors.
