vercel/next.js on the left · react/react on the right — computed from the real repos, not the referee's mood.
vercel/next.js
Next.js has 4398 open issues yet commits like "docs: clarify client cache freshness" show half the focus is on documentation rather than fixing problems.
react/react
React's README is longer than its actual code complexity, and with 1249 open issues, it seems like problems keep piling up despite frequent updates.
FinisherNext.js needs to prioritize resolving its many open issues instead of polishing its docs.
