This page compares the source lines of code (SLOC) of rwf2/rocket and tokio-rs/axum 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 2026-08-26, rwf2/rocket contains 47,393 total lines (35,529 code) across 431 files, while tokio-rs/axum contains 37,498 total lines (28,077 code) across 273 files as of 2026-09-09. rwf2/rocket is about 1.3x the size of tokio-rs/axum by code lines. Code size is not code quality: a larger count only means more source material, not a better or worse project.

Top languages in rwf2/rocket: Rust (92.5% of code), TOML (2.3% of code), CSS (1.9% of code). Top languages in tokio-rs/axum: Rust (95.0% of code), TOML (4.5% of code), Jinja2 (0.1% of code). Rust, TOML appear in both top language lists; CSS, Shell, Tera appear only in rwf2/rocket's top languages; Jinja2, JavaScript, HTML appear only in tokio-rs/axum's top languages.
Methodology: both counts come from cached OctoCounts reports generated with tokei. rwf2/rocket was counted at ref master (commit 3a54d079aef0) on 2026-08-26; tokio-rs/axum was counted at ref main (commit af1345b53a25) on 2026-09-09. 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.
rwf2/rocket has more code: 35,529 code lines versus 28,077 for tokio-rs/axum, about 1.3x as much, based on cached OctoCounts reports as of 2026-09-09.
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 rwf2/rocket, tokio-rs/axum, or any repository.
