Lithuania scores 3.54, with notably high developer density (5.57) offset by the worst public-sector hosting score in the EU27 (1.11). Lithuanian government domains rely heavily on non-EU CDNs.
Strengths
- Top-tier developer density — 5.57 per-capita index, top-5 in the EU27.
- Above-average sovereign browser share — 16.25% Firefox + Opera.
Weaknesses
- Worst public-sector hosting in the EU —
DR_PUB_SCT1.11. Lithuania's surveyed official domains include sites running on US-controlled CDN infrastructure. - Low private-sector hosting —
.ltraw rating 0.39, bottom quartile.
Outlook
Lithuania has the technical talent but unusually weak public-sector hosting discipline. This is the most easily-correctable EDRIX position in the EU27 — a single policy directive moving government domains to EU-only hosting would lift Lithuania significantly. Worth a per-domain review of the underlying sites.
Historical context
2020 baseline
In 2020, Lithuania was a "laggard," with underdeveloped frameworks and one of the weakest OSS ecosystems in the EU, critically hampered by the absence of a civil society ecosystem.
2024 progression
Lithuania has advanced significantly. A new 2024 law mandates storing public code in a state-run repository and prioritizes open source solutions. The government has also begun sharing resources on GitHub, fostering a more open environment.
