Dependicus, a dashboard for your monorepo's dependencies

What it does

Dependicus is a dependency governance tool for monorepos. It pulls data from your lockfile (or tool config), the npm registry, and GitHub, then produces an interactive dashboard, Linear tickets, and GitHub Issues so you can make informed decisions about your dependency graph at an organizational scale. If you maintain a monorepo with multiple teams, dozens of workspace packages, and hundreds of dependencies, Dependicus gives you the visibility that automated-PR tools don't: which packages are behind, by how much, who owns them, and where teams have drifted to different versions of the same dependency. You can see our own dashboard for a sense of what it looks like in practice. Dependicus…from descriptinc.github.io

In the maker’s words, at launch

Late last year, I was digging into some dependency-related tech debt, and struggling with how long it takes to run pnpm's introspection commands like 'pnpm why' in a medium-size monorepo. So I started working on a simple static site generator that would let me view the output of these expensive commands all at once…

  SimRepoNov 2025 · github.com · ▲275

  I built SimRepo, a browser extension that adds a “Similar Repositories” panel directly into GitHub repo pages (for repos with 150+ stars). It's useful for discovering related projects while browsing. It's based on a vectorized model trained on GitHub star data. Repo: https://github.com/Mubelotix/SimRepo Chrome/Firefox support, no tracking, fully open source. Would love feedback on the recommendation quality or UX!

  Monogo – Evolve your go workspace to a real monorepo2024 · github.com · ▲35

  Hi there, I've been working sporadically over the last six months on a go monorepo tool (0 config it just use go workspace and go convention). It’s basically like TurboRepo but without the task runner. The tool builds a dependency graph between packages, allowing you to do things similar to what you can do in TurboRepo, like "only test the packages and the packages that depend on them, compared to the main branch," or "only install dependencies for Package A and its dependencies," etc. I use native go tool to get dependencies and create dependency graph between the package.Nothing crazy but…

  Xkcd #2347 lived in my head, so I built the dependency tower for realDec 2025 · stacktower.io · ▲36

  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.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
