Tokei is a fast command-line tool that counts lines of code, comments, and blanks across a codebase, grouped by language. It is written in Rust and also exposes a library API for programmatic use.

Use cases

• count lines of code in a project
• get code statistics grouped by language
• measure comment and blank line counts
• replace cloc with a faster alternative
• generate code size stats for a repo
• track lines of code per language in CI

When to choose

• you need fast, accurate lines-of-code statistics across many languages
• you want a cross-platform CLI with no runtime dependencies
• you need to embed code-counting in a Rust program via its library API

When to avoid

• you need complexity metrics, duplication detection, or code quality analysis rather than raw line counts
• you need historical trends over time from a VCS
• you need a GUI or web-based reporting dashboard
