### What we like

Counts lines of code very quickly (millions of lines per second) to output stats for lines, code lines, comments, and blanks. Breaks out counts per language. Understands language specific syntax and supports basically every language. Single static (Rust) binary and can be also imported as a library.

### Tradeoffs

No stable release since Jan 2021, but does have recent commit history.
