Hi HN! I'm Gabriel, the author of dep-tree (https://github.com/gabotechs/dep-tree), and I wanted to show off this tool and explain why it's being really useful at my current org for dealing with code complexity. I work at a startup where business evolves really fast, and requirements change frequently, so it's easy to end up with big piles of code stacked together without a clear structure, specially with tight deadlines. I made dep-tree [1] to help us maintain a clean code architecture and a logical separation of concerns between parts of the application, which is…

Rev-dep is a dependency analysis and optimization CLI for JavaScript and TypeScript projects. It helps answer questions like: where is this file used, what are the entry points, are there circular dependencies, and which files or node_modules are unused. I recently rewrote it from scratch in Go to focus on performance and low memory usage. On large codebases (500k+ LOC), circular dependency detection runs in a few hundred milliseconds and is up to 175x faster than Madge in my benchmarks. Feature-wise it overlaps partially with tools like madge, dpdm, skott, and dependency-cruiser, but aims…

I finally got tired of XKCD #2347 living rent-free in my head, so I built Stacktower: a tool that takes any real package’s dependency graph and turns it into an actual tower of bricks. Along the way I had to wrestle some surprisingly spicy problems. Full blog post here: https://stacktower.io The result is half visualization tool, half love letter to the chaos of modern dependency trees. Open-source, works with PyPI, Cargo, npm, and more. Code: https://github.com/matzehuels/stacktower

I kept seeing every npm/pnpm/yarn/bun/uv supply chain post end with the same advice (set a minimum release age, turn off install scripts), and while I know cooldowns are "controversial", they do work. But even if you convince people that they should set cooldowns, it seems many don't end up following through, not sure why, maybe because it means hand-editing five config files in five formats with five different time units, or perhaps the "it won't happen to me" syndrome (or "I'll do it later, it seems complicated" where it's actually very simple). So I created a tool that…

After yesterday's release of Deno with package.json support[0] some discussions about how Deno handles dependencies have been coming up again. Since Deno's inception, I've mostly been watching it from the sidelines, dabbling a bit with it, and mostly been considering it a fad that will die out sooner or later. Ultimately, with the new package.json support nothing really changed regarding the dependency management story of Deno. It's still as awful as ever. Prompted by some discussions, I decided I would try to test how easy it would be to mount a typo-domain supply chain attack. And as…
