200k lines of code sounds a lot for a SaaS frontend, and a comment below mentions having 400k lines of Elm in their project.

With the usual caveats around LOC measurements, what are your experiences for frontend codebases, for software that isn't GMail or Facebook?

I think elms natural code formatting results in higher no of lines, so it's not very comparable to JS.

My experience with large scale front end applications is that they are incredibly hard to build correctly, the complexity involved in modern javascript frameworks is staggering. Elm with its tea architecture for building statefull apps is actually one of the simpler options one can go with.
