This page compares the source lines of code (SLOC) of prettier/prettier and eslint/eslint using cached OctoCounts reports. Code size is not code quality: a larger count only means more source material, not a better or worse project.
As of 2026-08-31, prettier/prettier contains 100,806 total lines (51,319 code) across 861 files, while eslint/eslint contains 124,114 total lines (71,872 code) across 473 files as of 2026-09-07. eslint/eslint is about 1.4x the size of prettier/prettier by code lines. Code size is not code quality: a larger count only means more source material, not a better or worse project.

Methodology: both counts come from cached OctoCounts reports generated with tokei. prettier/prettier was counted at ref main (commit 5fd5b6908b8d) on 2026-08-31; eslint/eslint was counted at ref main (commit c8326608e710) on 2026-09-07. See the counting methodology for ignored directories and analysis options.
Evidence and next steps:
Note: code size is not code quality. OctoCounts only reports reproducible line counts and makes no claim that either project is better.
eslint/eslint has more code: 71,872 code lines versus 51,319 for prettier/prettier, about 1.4x as much, based on cached OctoCounts reports as of 2026-09-07.
Not necessarily. SLOC measures size, not complexity, quality, or maintainability. A larger codebase can mean more features, more generated or vendored code, more verbose language idioms, or more tests — none of which imply the code is harder to work with. Use SLOC to gauge the scale of what you'd be reading or maintaining, not as a quality signal for prettier/prettier, eslint/eslint, or any repository.
