The Cocoa Dependency Manager.

Project mention: Show HN: Privacy Manifest CLI tool for iOS apps | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-17

Very nice! love that it is all in swift, will give a closer look later but looks beautiful.
Recently went through this with a react native app with a ton of old dependencies and it was fairly painful. Wrote a couple not quite as beautiful scripts to help so I wish I had this before.
Tangential rant: I am all for privacy but find it really obnoxious that the most profitable company in the world is giving open source contributors to their ecosystem work on a deadline. Case in point: https://github.com/CocoaPods/CocoaPods/issues/10325
