A dependency manager for .NET with support for NuGet packages and Git repositories. NuGet does not separate out the concept of transitive dependencies. If you install a package into your project and that package has further dependencies then all transitive packages are included in the packages.config. There is no way to tell which packages are only transitive dependencies. Even more importantly: If two packages reference conflicting versions of a package, NuGet will silently take the latest version (read more). ...

...It allows you to declare, manage and install the libraries on which your PHP project depends. Unlike most package managers, Composer manages on a per-project basis. It installs packages or libraries in a directory (e.g. vendor) inside your project and does not install anything globally. However, for convenience it does support a "global" project via the global command. Suppose your project depends on a number of libraries which in turn, depend on other libraries. Composer enables you to declare these libraries, finds out which versions of these packages you require, and installs them. ...

...It is the default package manager for the JavaScript runtime environment Node.js. It consists of a command line client, also called npm, and an online database of public and paid-for private packages, called the npm registry.

renv is an R dependency management toolkit that enables project-level library isolation and reproducibility. It tracks package versions in a lockfile and can restore exact library states across machines or over time, making R projects portable and consistent.

box is an R package providing a modular system / module loader for organizing reusable R code outside of full packages. It allows users to treat R scripts (files/folders) as modules — possibly nested — with explicit exports, imports, and scoping. The idea is to let users structure code in a more modular, composable way, without needing every reusable component to be a full CRAN-style package. It also provides a cleaner syntax for importing functions or modules (via box::use) that allows scoping control and avoids global pollution. ...

pip-tools enhances Python dependency management by providing pip-compile and pip-sync commands. It transforms human-friendly requirements.in into fully pinned requirements.txt, ensuring reproducible environments. It also resolves transitive dependencies and synchronizes your environment with pinned versions. Widely used in both development and CI workflows, it boosts reliability and eliminates drift in deployed setups.

...It simplifies adding, updating, and removing package sources via a single nix/sources.json file, improving reproducibility and version control in Nix-based workflows. niv simplifies adding and updating dependencies in Nix projects. It uses a single file, nix/sources.json, where it stores the data necessary for fetching and updating the packages. Nix is a very powerful tool for building code and setting up environments. niv complements it by making it easy to describe and update remote dependencies (URLs, GitHub repos, etc). It is a simple, practical alternative to Nix flakes. The add command will infer information about the package being added, when possible. This works very well for GitHub repositories. ...

This project aims to create a set of tools to help distributors to build, port, test, validate and manage software packages. Existing tools are bm (the build manager) and dm (the dependency manager). The tools are written in Python.
