What it is
Dependency Wheel arranges entities around a ring and draws directed arcs showing dependency strength. Hover one node to see exactly what it depends on (and what depends on it).
What it does
Circular node layout with directed dependency arcs, hover-highlight an ego dependency network, optional tick marks and group palettes.
Why use it
Software, supply chains, and org topologies all have implicit dependency graphs. This makes them visible.
Three ways teams use it
Engineering
Service-to-service dependency map.
Ops
Supplier dependency for a critical SKU.
Compliance
Process dependencies for a control audit.
