Why it ranks here
Health score explained
MiroTalk SFU scores 69/100, #6 of 10 in Communication - Video Conferencing: 429 commits in the last 90 days earn 35.0 of 35 points, the absence of a tagged release forfeits all 25 release points, 3,144 stars add 14.0 of 20, an active, unarchived repository keeps 10 and Docker support adds the final 10. That places it in the slowing band (40 to 69). The biggest shortfall is release recency, worth 25.0 more points.
