...Correct me if I’m wrong, but if 20 PHP projects do what most PHP projects have done and that is build out a custom “framework” that’s splayed out in /lib/ and /include/ directories, then they’re naturally going to have much more code than 20 Rails projects that are all taking advantage of the ~75,000 LOCs that’s present in the Rails framework.
...
Would a 5000 LOC Rails application be equivalent to an 80,000 LOC PHP (non-framework using) application?
Then in an Age of (Web) Frameworks, is there a relationship between LOCs and success, productivity or popularity? (via)
No of course!
