What are direct dependencies?

Can you explain what direct dependencies are in software development?

Sure! Direct dependencies are libraries or packages that your project directly relies on to function.

How do I find out what my project's direct dependencies are?

You can usually find them listed in your project's configuration file, like package.json for Node.js projects.

What happens if I don't manage my direct dependencies properly?

If not managed properly, it can lead to issues like version conflicts, security vulnerabilities, and broken functionality.

Can you give me an example of a direct dependency?

Certainly! If your project uses React, then React is a direct dependency because your code directly calls its functions.
