Depends
A fast, extensible multi-language dependency extraction tool for code analysis and visualization.
What is Depends?
Depends is a fast, comprehensive code dependency analysis tool that extracts syntactical relations among source code entities like files and methods from multiple programming languages. It solves the problem of fragmented, vendor-specific dependency extraction by providing a unified, extensible framework for language-independent analysis.
Software engineers, researchers, and tool vendors who need to perform code visualization, program comprehension, architecture analysis, or build higher-level analysis tools on top of dependency data.
Developers choose Depends because it's an open-source, multi-language alternative to commercial tools, offering a flexible and extensible framework that avoids vendor lock-in and supports community collaboration.
