6,477 LOCs.

A wasted an opportunity to implement it using 7 or 8 microservices.

I think this is sarcasm. But talking to proponents of microservices I am not sure. Can you confirm please

Haha. It is.

But looking at the code made me think how we are capable of shipping software products that are hundred of thousand of lines of code and then we have people trying to break things some much and we end up in a spaghetti of microservices and their connections.
