Our Take

Complexity Indicator is the kind of tool that should've existed years ago because let's be real, every codebase eventually becomes a nightmare and nobody wants to be the one who flags it until it's too late — this basically gives developers objective data to prove their code is legitimately unmaintainable before they lose their minds debugging it, which is either genius or going to cause a lot of uncomfortable Slack messages. The premise is solid even if the execution details are still light.
