Line Impact️: Under the Hood
Line Impact™ is the single, reliable metric we use to clarify developer work. It measures how much each commit evolves your project's code base. It's similar in effect to measuring "cognitive load."
"Lines of code" is a distant cousin to Line Impact in that each changed line of code has the potential to accumulate Line Impact. The biggest difference between "lines of code" and Line Impact? The "lines of code" metric is 95% noise, whereas Line Impact is built for the expressed purpose of measuring changes that matter.
