"Codebase" is a term used in software development to refer to the aggregate of all source code used to build a particular application or component. As typically used, the codebase includes only human-written source code files, and not e.g. source code files generated by other tools or binary library files. However, it does generally include configuration and property files.

The codebase for a project is typically stored in a source control repository.
