Ethereum vs Hyperledger Fabric: What are the differences?

Ethereum: Open source platform to write and distribute decentralized applications. A decentralized platform for applications that run exactly as programmed without any chance of fraud, censorship or third-party interference; Hyperledger Fabric: An open source initiative to advance blockchain technology. It is a collaborative effort created to advance blockchain technology by identifying and addressing important features and currently missing requirements. It leverages container technology to host smart contracts called “chaincode” that comprise the application logic of the system.

Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric can be primarily classified as "Blockchain" tools.

Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric are both open source tools. It seems that Hyperledger Fabric with 8.62K GitHub stars and 4.9K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Ethereum with 4.67K GitHub stars and 1.58K GitHub forks.

According to the StackShare community, Ethereum has a broader approval, being mentioned in 29 company stacks & 33 developers stacks; compared to Hyperledger Fabric, which is listed in 9 company stacks and 9 developer stacks.
