# gf vs prometheus

gf and prometheus share 10 technologies: Consul, github.com/go-zookeeper/zk, OpenTelemetry, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracegrpc, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp, and Prometheus. Both are written in Go.

- [gogf/gf](https://seerepo.com/r/gogf/gf): A powerful framework for faster, easier, and more efficient project development.
- [prometheus/prometheus](https://seerepo.com/r/prometheus/prometheus): The Prometheus monitoring system and time series database.

- 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.
