# candle vs warp

candle and warp share 6 technologies: objc2-foundation, Tokio, tokenizers, image, zip, and tracing. Both are written in Rust.

- [huggingface/candle](https://seerepo.com/r/huggingface/candle): Minimalist ML framework for Rust
- [warpdotdev/warp](https://seerepo.com/r/warpdotdev/warp): Warp is an agentic development environment, born out of the terminal.

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
