Profile

As software engineers we are often confronted with the decision of whether to code something ourselves or to add an existing library that does it for us.Whether we like it or not – we are adding dependencies sooner or later. And it's arguably good practice to check a new dependency beforehand: Is it maintained? By whom? How many issues does it have and how many of those are bugs? Are they being fixed? What's on the roadmap? What's the release frequency and how often do APIs break?One of our favorite solutions that already exist to answer such questions is the OpenSSF Scorecard project (https://github.com/ossf/scorecard) – we use this ourselves and can only recommend it.We built shouldiuse.de
