Odoo 20.0 dev — development line
A different statement from the table above. There: the module as published, on a released platform. Here: the module’s code with its manifest version mechanically raised, on a platform that has not been released and changes daily.

This does not say the module is compatible with Odoo 20.0, and does not say it installs on Odoo 20.0 — on a stock platform it will not, until its maintainer raises the version. Why we raise the version
Odoo 20.0 — the branch itself
The same frozen code, run again against the real 20.0 branch. The run above used Odoo’s development line before the branch was cut; this one used the branch, pinned to one commit.

The module’s code on 19.0
| Lines of code | python 218 · xml 42 |
| Tests | yes: 1 file(s), 100 lines |
| Migration scripts | no |
| Models | 0 new · 1 extensions |
Lines are physical, blanks and comments included, as wc -l. Tests are test_*.py files under tests/. Models are lines holding _name = and _inherit =. These are facts about the code, not a judgement: more lines is neither better nor worse. Measured 2026-08-28 on tree d0e4e772c196.
The apps.odoo.com catalogue has a listing under the same technical name on 17.0, 18.0, 19.0: apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/19.0/web_favicon. A matching name does not prove matching code — how we counted this.
