Why it ranks here
Health score explained
Aimeos scores 34/100, #25 of 25 in E-commerce: 8 commits in the last 90 days earn 9.3 of 35 points, the absence of a tagged release forfeits all 25 release points, 5,468 stars add 15.0 of 20, an active, unarchived repository keeps 10 and no advertised Docker image leaves the final 10 unclaimed. That places it in the stale band (below 40). The biggest shortfall is commit activity, worth 25.7 more points.
