What is Lines of Code?
Lines of Code is a simple tool that shows how many lines of code you’ve written in each language across your GitHub repos. It generates a clean, interactive graph you can embed anywhere.

Solution
A web-based analytics tool that lets users analyze GitHub repositories to generate interactive visualizations of lines of code written per language, displayed as embeddable graphs.
Customers
