pipdeptree vs PyDeps

pipdeptree is for the venv you already built: conflicts, cycles, --reverse. PyDeps.com is for the look before you install: the PyPI tree, extras, OSV, licenses, and an offline ZIP if you need one. Most people end up using both.

Not the same as pip install pydeps

The CLI package pydeps (thebjorn/pydeps) visualizes module import graphs in your codebase. PyDeps.com explores published Python packages.

Quick decision

• Debug the current venv → pipdeptree
• Preview what pip install X pulls in → PyDeps
• Who on PyPI depends on X → PyDeps Dependents
• CVE + license + offline ZIP together → PyDeps
