Project Ideas DependentCode A Mostly Universal Package Dependency Resolver

DependentCode: a mostly universal Package dependency resolver

The goal of this project is to create a tool for a universal package dependency resolution using a SAT solver that should leverage the detected packages from ScanCode and the Package URLs and could provide a good enough way to resolve package dependencies for many system and application package formats. This is a green field project.
