Along the way I had to wrestle some surprisingly spicy problems.Full blog post here: https://stacktower.ioThe result is half visualization tool, half love letter to the chaos of modern dependency trees. Open-source, works with PyPI, Cargo, npm, and more.Code: https://github.com/matzehuels/stacktower
