Size Project

A Visual Studio Code extension that shows the total number of non-empty lines of code in your project.

Features

• Displays the total number of non-empty lines of code in your project in the status bar
• Updates automatically when files are modified, created, or deleted
• Excludes common non-code files and directories (like node_modules, .git, images, etc.)
• Counts only lines that contain actual content (not empty lines)

Installation

You can install this extension directly from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace:

1. Open VS Code
2. Go to Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X)
3. Search for "Size Project"
4. Click Install

Alternatively, you can download the VSIX file from the releases page and install it manually:

code --install-extension size-project-1.0.0.vsix

Usage

Once installed, the extension automatically activates when you open a workspace. You'll see the line count in the status bar at the bottom right of your VS Code window.

The count updates automatically when:

• You modify a file
• You create a new file
• You delete a file

You can also manually recalculate the project size by clicking on the line count in the status bar.

Performance Considerations

For very large projects, the initial calculation might take a few seconds. The extension is designed to be as efficient as possible by:

• Skipping binary files and common non-code directories
• Using VS Code's built-in file system watcher to only update when necessary
• Respecting .gitignore patterns

Development
