Tokei
Count lines of code quickly with Tokei, a code statistics command-line tool.

About Tokei
Tokei is a command-line program that counts code. It reports the number of files, total lines, code lines, comments, and blank lines, grouped by programming language. The project's homepage describes it as fast, able to count millions of lines of code in seconds, and states that it supports over 150 languages and their file extensions.
Tokei can be installed through common package managers on Linux, macOS, and Windows, or built from source with the Rust compiler. It respects .gitignore and .ignore files and offers an --exclude option for leaving out additional files. Its behavior can be changed with a configuration file named tokei.toml or .tokeirc.
