What it does

PyDependencyCheck explains why dependencies exist, who introduced them, whether they're used, their security and license risks, and the impact of removing them. Gain complete visibility into your project's dependency graph. pip install PyDependencyCheck

Production-grade dependency intelligence for Python. Why dependencies exist, who added them, if they're used, if they're safe, what changed. Supply chain integrity. - Mullassery/PyDependencyCheck

Dependency intelligence and supply-chain security for Python projects. A Rust core (dependency parsing, graph algorithms, OSV vulnerability scanning) wrapped in a Python CLI: scan dependencies, see who introduced them and why, find unused packages, check license compliance, generate signed SBOMs, and gate CI builds on a real health score. pip install " pydependencycheck[sbom,otel] " Requires Python 3.8+. Prebuilt wheels are published for Linux, macOS (Intel/Apple Silicon), and Windows; see .github/INSTALL.md if you need to build from source. # Scan the current project (--path defaults to ".") pydependencycheck scan # Why is this package installed, and who added it? pydependencycheck why…from github.com

    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…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
