🛠️ Scant helps you find barely used Python dependencies
Summary
Scant is a tool that helps developers find barely used Python dependencies in repositories, specifically those imported and used in only a single file or on a single line of code. It aims to help reduce the supply-chain attack surface area and minimize dependency issues.
Why it’s interesting
It targets dependencies that are technically used but only scantily, helping minimize supply-chain risk and dependency bloat.
