(OP) 1/3rd of the code is tests.

There's an Expo app, two Tauri apps, a cli, a chrome extension. The admin part to help debug and test features is EXTREMELY detailed and around 40k LOC alone.

To give some perspective to that number.

Yeah, I read the post. Telling me that there's a chrome extension and some apps tells me nothing. Saying that the code is 1/3 tests is...something, but it's not exceptional, by any means.

I've got an code base I've been writing from scratch with LLMs, its of equivalent LOC and testing ratio, and my experiences trusting the models couldn't be more different. They routinely emit hot garbage.
