How we ranked: Most tools here are commercial products without public GitHub repos, so we rank by the maturity stated on each listing: Mature first, then Active, then newer launches. Within each group, tools with more tracked GitHub stars come first, then alphabetical order. This is not a quality score. No paid placements.
