How do I choose the right developer tooling platform?

Start from your own size, industry and primary use case rather than from share. Webpack, Babel and Turbopack are the three we detect most often in this category, which tells you what is common, not what fits you. Compare their integrations, pricing tiers and support commitments against the workflow you actually run, and check each vendor's own documentation for current capabilities.
