Render your project's dependency tree in ASCII, track cycles and exports. Visualize and analyze module dependencies across your codebase.

Commands

Dependency Visualization

• dep-tree deps show — Show dependency tree

Cycle Detection

• dep-tree deps check — Check for dependency cycles

Utility

• dep-tree _ _ — Passthrough to dep-tree CLI

Usage Examples

• "Show dependency tree"
• "Check for cycles"
• "Visualize module dependencies"
• "Analyze project imports"

Installation

brew install dep-tree

Or via Go:
