Line Counter
Count the number of lines in your text.
This Line Counter counts the number of lines in a block of text, updating automatically as you paste or edit it — useful for checking a file's row count, a list's length, or a code snippet's size before pasting it elsewhere. Counting happens entirely in your browser.

Frequently asked questions
What counts as a "line" here?
Any text separated by a line break — the same way a text editor or terminal's `wc -l` would count rows in a file.
When would I need to count lines?
Checking how many rows are in a pasted CSV or log file, estimating a code snippet's size before sharing it, or confirming a list has the number of entries you expect.
Does an empty trailing line get counted?
A trailing newline at the very end of the text is handled the way most line-counting tools treat it, matching what you'd see counting rows in a text editor.
Is my pasted text saved anywhere?
No. Counting happens entirely in your browser tab and nothing is retained after you leave the page.
