Dependency Mapper

Visualize project dependencies as an interactive graph in VS Code.

Features

  • Left-to-right hierarchical layout for clear dependency flow.
  • Double-click any node to open the corresponding file.
  • Yellow highlighting for selected nodes and their connected neighbors.
  • Built-in search with keyboard shortcuts:
    • Ctrl+F (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+F (macOS) opens search.
    • Enter cycles through matches.
    • Esc closes search.

How it works

The extension scans imports starting from a selected root directory, builds a dependency graph, and renders it in a webview.
