ToolJet is not coasting. It logged 28 release events in 30 days and 30 releases in 90 days, which is a blunt signal that the project is still in active motion. ToolVitals also gives it a health score of 100 and a shipping score of 100, so this is not a half-alive open-source repo pretending to be a platform.
The more interesting signal is the shape of the release train. Recent events show beta and LTS lines moving side by side, with releases like v3.21.23-beta on 2026-04-21, v3.20.148-lts on 2026-04-20, v3.21.21-beta on 2026-04-19, and v3.20.147-lts on 2026-04-17. That pattern says the team is maintaining two tracks at once, which usually means they care about both fast iteration and stable downstream adoption.
The star count backs up the footprint, not the product quality. ToolJet has 37,776 GitHub stars, which puts it in the crowded upper tier of open-source developer tools. But stars do not tell you whether internal app builders actually like the product, whether deployments are clean, or whether the AI app generation story works in practice.
What the data does not tell you
ToolVitals can infer shipping velocity from release events and recency. It can also infer that the website and repository are alive. It cannot see code quality, test depth, user satisfaction, revenue, retention, or whether ToolJet AI actually solves the problem better than alternatives. Commit counts for the last 30 days, active contributors, and uptime detail are missing here, so the picture is strong but not complete.
Competitor comparison
ToolJet’s 28 release events in 30 days are roughly on par with LangChain’s 28 and just behind OpenClaw and Composio at 30. It is moving much faster than Continue, which shows 16 release events in 30 days, and far ahead of Browser Use at 8. That is a real maintenance signal, not noise.
Recommendation
If your team needs an open-source internal tools or app-generation platform, ToolJet is worth evaluating because the project is shipping continuously, not drifting. If you care more about dormant stability than active development, this pace may be too much churn. For teams that want a maintained platform with a visible release cadence, ToolJet looks alive in the one way ToolVitals can measure cleanly.
