Open source community-supported agriculture (csa)
Management and administration tools for community supported agriculture and food cooperatives. Repoly tracks 8 open-source community-supported agriculture tools, each scored nightly from its repository activity and ranked by that score alone. FoodCoopShop leads at 88/100 with 32 commits in the last 90 days and 124 stars, followed by Hive-Pal (86) and Open Food Network (82). 5 of the 8 score 70 or above, 3 publish a Docker image, and the median health is 76. AGPL-3.0 is the most common licence, carried by 5 of them. The score weighs commits in the last 90 days, release recency, stars, archive status and Docker support; a low number means low measurable activity, not low quality, so a finished, stable tool can legitimately sit lower down.

How the community-supported agriculture tools compare
FoodCoopShop edges Hive-Pal 88 to 86, and most of the difference is stars: 124 stars against 37 stars. Hive-Pal is the busier codebase, though, with 120 commits in 90 days to 32. Open Food Network has the largest following at 1.3k stars, yet ranks #3 of 8, held back mostly by Docker support (no Docker image).
The most recent release is Open Food Network v5.8.1, published 4 days ago. ACP Admin and teikei publish no tagged releases, which costs up to 25 of the 100 points. None of the measured options scores under 40. By stack, Ruby (3), Nodejs (2) and PHP (1) are the most common. Hive-Pal and ACP Admin are permissively licensed; FoodCoopShop, Open Food Network, juntagrico and 3 more are copyleft.
