Welcome to ILoveDependencyHell, the GitHub organisation for people who:

• Think npm install is a cardio workout
• Believe that “dependency tree” is a horror story, not a data structure
• Enjoy living dangerously by relying on packages nobody’s updated in three years

If it builds… congratulations! You probably broke something else in the process.

ILoveDependencyHell is home to projects that:

• Depend on libraries that have more dependencies than your entire laptop
• Break spectacularly when a single package version updates
• Exist purely to make Stack Overflow traffic spike

We embrace chaos engineering accidentally, all the time.

By contributing or even looking at these repos, you accept:

• Merge conflicts that make you question your life choices
• Error messages that look like hieroglyphics after 2 AM
• The existential dread of running rm -rf node_modules && npm install and realizing you forgot to commit your work

We live by three sacred principles:

1. If it compiles, it’s a miracle.
2. Lockfiles are lies.
3. sudo is a valid debugging tool.

Here, every build is a gamble, every CI run is a cliffhanger, and every release notes page is a cry for help.

Think you can handle it? Great! Here’s how:

1. Fork the repo and pray.
2. Run npm install (or pip install or cargo build—good luck).
3. Attempt to fix the bug.
4. Open a PR. Travis, GitHub Actions, or your local machine will tell you if it’s allowed.
5. Accept that your change will break something else somewhere else.

Pro tip: coffee, snacks, and therapy sessions are strongly recommended.

• npm / yarn: npm install → chaos
• pip: pip install → tears
• cargo: cargo build → smug satisfaction for 5 seconds, then panic
• gem / bundler: bundle install → regret
• composer: composer update → existential crisis

Just so we’re clear: ILoveDependencyHell is actually a playground.

• For testing Git submodules
• For experimenting with CI/CD madness
• For seeing how many packages you can break before lunch

It’s not serious… except for the chaos part.

We take submodules very seriously. By “seriously,” we mean “completely terrifying.” Here are some examples of what might happen here:

• You clone a repo, init submodules, and suddenly your entire afternoon disappears.
• git submodule update --init --recursive is more stressful than your last performance review.
• You fix one submodule reference, and three other repos explode silently.
• Someone accidentally committed a submodule pointing to a nonexistent branch. Congratulations, it’s now your problem.
• Mysterious .gitmodules changes appear from the void, haunting every CI run.
• You think you understand submodules… and then your cat walks across the keyboard and your brain files for divorce.

Here, submodules aren’t a feature. They’re a rite of passage.

“It worked on my machine… until it didn’t.”

We don’t fix bugs; we relocate them. If you survive a week here, congratulations—you’re officially hardened by dependency hell.

Remember: in ILoveDependencyHell, the only constant is change… outdated packages… and submodule-induced nightmares.
