Dependency Hell

Dependency Hell occurs when software applications rely on multiple libraries or components, each possibly requiring different versions of the same dependencies. When these requirements conflict, it becomes difficult to install, update, or run the software reliably. Essentially, managing these dependencies is like trying to balance multiple schedules—if they don't align, the software can break or behave unpredictably. This tangled dependency web complicates development, testing, and maintenance, often leading to frustration and system instability. Resolving Dependency Hell typically involves carefully coordinating versions or isolating environments to ensure compatibility.
