Dependabot – Automated Dependency Update PRs for Ruby, JS, Python and PHP

In plain words

Dependabot automates the process of updating software dependencies for Ruby, JavaScript, Python, and PHP projects.

The tool integrates with GitHub, where developers can review and merge dependency updates alongside their regular development workflow.
