Habitat vs Metamon: What are the differences?

What is Habitat? Application Automation framework by Chef. Habitat is a new approach to automation that focuses on the application instead of the infrastructure it runs on. With Habitat, the apps you build, deploy, and manage behave consistently in any runtime — metal, VMs, containers, and PaaS. You'll spend less time on the environment and more time building features.

What is Metamon? A Vagrant/Ansible toolkit for kickstarting Django apps. Metamon is a Vagrantfile combined with a set of Ansible Playbooks which can be used to quickly start a new Django project. Although Metamon is easily extensible by adding new Ansible roles, it is a better fit for people who use Django + Gunicorn + Nginx + PostgreSQL.

Habitat and Metamon can be primarily classified as "Infrastructure Build" tools.

Habitat and Metamon are both open source tools. It seems that Habitat with 1.97K GitHub stars and 294 forks on GitHub has more adoption than Metamon with 348 GitHub stars and 15 GitHub forks.
