I can only answer questions about karumi/dexter or yunaiv/ruoyi-vue-pro. I can help you understand the specifics of each, but the choice depends on your project's needs.
Here's what each repo is designed for:
[karumi/dexter] — Android runtime permission management
- Simplifies requesting permissions at runtime (Android Marshmallow+)
- Lightweight, focused library for one specific problem
- Status: No longer under active development [README.md:L1-L20]
[yunaiv/ruoyi-vue-pro] — Full enterprise development platform
- Complete backend + frontend framework (Java Spring Boot, Vue 3, etc.)
- Includes code generation, workflows (Flowable), multi-tenancy, microservices infrastructure
- Active project with extensive features [README.md:L36-L61]
Decision factors:
-
If you need Android permissions handling: Dexter is purpose-built, but the README warns it's unmaintained and recommends looking at alternatives. The RepoPilot verdict is "GO" (healthy), but maintenance is stopped.
-
If you need an enterprise platform: ruoyi-vue-pro is a full-stack, actively maintained solution with hundreds of infrastructure features [README.md:L201-L225].
To help you better, what type of project are you building? Is it Android-focused, a web/backend application, or something else?
FOLLOW_UPS:
- What platform does your project target?
- Do you need permission handling or full framework?
- Are you concerned about maintenance status?
