Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.
Why it matters
Genkit matters because it is one of the few first-party frameworks from a major cloud/AI vendor (Google) that is genuinely open source (Apache-2.0), multi-language, and oriented around production AI features rather than demos.
Who should use it
Who should skip it
Skip or sandbox it if you cannot review permissions, data access, and failure modes before use.
Risk explanation
High risk: do not use without strong containment, approvals, and hands-on review.
