# mastg vs PaddleOCR

mastg and PaddleOCR share 3 technologies: core-ktx, lifecycle-runtime-ktx, and ui-graphics. mastg is written in Kotlin and PaddleOCR in C++.

- [OWASP/mastg](https://seerepo.com/r/OWASP/mastg): The OWASP Mobile Application Security Testing Guide (MASTG) is a comprehensive manual for mobile app security testing and reverse engineering. It describes technical processes for verifying the OWASP Mobile Security Weakness Enumeration (MASWE) weaknesses, which are in alignment with the OWASP MASVS.
- [PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR](https://seerepo.com/r/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR): Turn any PDF or image document into structured data for your AI. A powerful, lightweight OCR toolkit that bridges the gap between images/PDFs and LLMs. Supports 100+ languages.

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: core-ktx, lifecycle-runtime-ktx, ui-graphics
- Only in mastg: activity-compose, material3, ui
- Only in PaddleOCR: Jetpack Compose, FastAPI, lmdb, uvicorn, fastmcp, AIOHTTP, fonttools, appcompat, constraintlayout, albucore, ONNX, onnxruntime, onnxruntime-android, onnxruntime-objc, OpenCV, opencv-contrib-python, PaddlePaddle, sentencepiece, opencv-python, paddleslim, paddlex, paddleocr, albumentations, MCP, paddlenlp, scikit-image, LangChain, coil-compose, pypandoc, python-docx, pillow, puremagic, beautifulsoup4, Pydantic, @techstark/opencv-js, onnxruntime-web, js-yaml

| Activity | Last push November 7, 2026, 8,693 commits, 13,325 stars | Last push September 16, 2026, 5,137 commits, 92,462 stars |
| Tests | 135 test files. 6.9% of its code files have a test that imports them | 105 test files. 11.4% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
