Over the past few years, we have spent several hackweeks writing, improving, and maintaining multiple open-source rebar3 plugins for the Erlang community, such as the formatter, Elvis, or Hank. Particularly for Hank, we even wrote an academic paper that, with the help of Laura M. Castro, I recently presented at the latest edition of the ICFP Erlang Workshop.
The most recent HackWeek was not an exception. That’s why I’m writing this article to introduce you to our latest plugin: rebar3_depup.
