New Work%

Total lines of code added or modified.

• Low % of New Work indicates the team is trying to change old code even to build new features, which will impact the implementation of high blast radius and poor solid principles. It's a signal to review the architecture.

• More New Work, along with slight Rework and Maintenance is always a good sign, as it indicates solid practices are in place, and the team can go ship new features at a faster pace as code is isolated.
