Billions? That sounds like a vast overestimate, no? Are there any programs that approach a billion lines of code?

- mgkimsal 7y agoI'd think a few npm dependencies should do the trick ;) a quick search brought up https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/the-biggest-codebases-in-history-a128bb3eea73/ https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/the-biggest-codebases-in-h... which reports google's codebase is around 2 billion LOC. MS Office comes in close to 50 million, for example. Not sure how accurate these are, but seem to give some rough comparisons, and yeah, not too many things are billions of LOC.
