About these scores

OSS scale score is an unbounded metric that log-compresses and weights Stars, Watchers, Forks, and Contributors. Discovery score is the current OSS scale score minus the score at discovery. Update pace is commits in the last 30 days, growth momentum is the OSS scale score difference within the recent observation window, and OSS health is a 0–100 rating based on available recency, Community Health, and release data.

Features and best fit

Supplemental curator note

Frappe Helpdesk provides a Zendesk/Help Scout-style ticket workflow within the Frappe ecosystem. Production installation is streamlined, but Helpdesk branches have explicit Frappe Framework compatibility requirements, so upgrades should follow the compatibility matrix.
