Java and Python are not the same language. AngularJS and Backbone are both Javascript frameworks. LOC is certainly a useful metric in this case. It doesn't necessarily mean one framework is superior than the other but can and should be used when comparing frameworks.

Java and Python are both General Purpose Programming Languages. If I had to choose between frameworks, tools or languages. LOC is not the reason why I would choose A or B. Another thing is comparing one of the following: support, active community, features, future improvements, documentation.

> Java and Python are not the same language. AngularJS and Backbone are both Javascript frameworks. They are, but one of the things that makes Angular so powerful is that it kinda defines its own DSL. Most of your work may not even be in javascript, but in the enhanced HTML that Angular defines for you (and which you can expand by making more directives).
