We’re excited to announce our next major feature enhancement to Ohloh. In this deployment, you can now compare projects in a detailed side-by-side view, giving you the information you need to decide which open source project is right for your needs.
Compare Projects
The new compare projects feature is found at Tools – Compare Projects. In addition, regular visitors to Ohloh will notice a new and improved Tools page.
Enter the full project name in the input box to automatically generate the data in the table. It is important to enter the full project name via the suggestion box, so Ohloh knows exactly which project you are referring to.
View the entire comparison for jQuery, Dojo Toolkit, and YUI.
We also recommend checking out the following comparisons of these popular open source projects:
Web Servers: Apache HTTPD, nginx, lighttpd
Browsers: Firefox, Chrome, Konqueror
Deployment management: Capistrano, Fabric
More deployment and configuration management: Chef, Puppet, cfengine
Feedback
We’re very interested in your feedback with the new compare projects feature, so please let us know what you like, don’t like, what’s confusing, and what could be added to make it even better!
