# Dependency Management

Decide what to depend on, keep dependencies current, respond to advisories, and reduce supply chain risk. Stack-agnostic principles; specifics vary by package manager.

## When to use

- Setting up dependency hygiene for a new or existing project
- Responding to a security advisory
- Major version upgrade of a key dependency
- Adding a new dependency (evaluation, decision)
- Removing a dependency (cleanup)
- Audit of what's installed and what's actually used
