sonne is a simple and fast lines of code counter that is very configurable and easy to use. It is able to count plain text lines, as well as code lines including comments using configurable language definitions. These language definitions can be added to any config at will, allowing for custom code counting at any scope.

First, clone the repository using --recurse-submodules to get all of the submoduled dependencies. Then create a build or out folder and run CMake in it. Then compile and run!

sonne depends on fmt for formatting strings, json for parsing configs, Catch2 for testing, and cxxopts for parsing commands.

To use sonne, just provide the path to the file or folder you wish to run it on.
