Why DepCart
Adding dependencies shouldn't take ten tabs.
npmjs.com for the frontend, pypi.org for the scripts, pkg.go.dev for the service, then guessing whether this repo uses npm or pnpm, pip or uv. DepCart puts all of it in your editor.
Clean, grouped results
Results grouped by language with registry logos. Exact name matches rise to the top; click a name to open its registry page.
Every version
Pick any published version. Stable releases come first, so hundreds of nightly builds never bury the one you want.
One command per language
npm packages and Go modules never share a command. Copy it, or run it in a terminal opened at your project.
Knows your project
pnpm-lock.yaml means pnpm, uv.lock means uv, a Flutter pubspec.yaml means flutter pub. Your choice is remembered.
Safe by design
Names and versions are validated before they reach a command, so a malicious package name can't inject shell syntax or flags.
How it picks the tool
It reads your project, not your mind.
Click a file. DepCart looks at the top of your workspace and writes the command for the tool you already use.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How do I search npm packages inside VS Code?
Install DepCart from the VS Code Marketplace, click the DepCart icon in the Activity Bar and type a package name. Results from npm (and any other registry you switch on) appear grouped by language; press + to add a package and pick its version.
Can I install Python packages with pip, uv or poetry from VS Code?
Yes. DepCart searches PyPI and builds the command for pip, uv, poetry, pipenv or pdm. It picks the tool your project uses from files like uv.lock, poetry.lock or Pipfile, and you can copy the command or run it in a VS Code terminal.
Does DepCart work with yarn, pnpm, bun and deno?
Yes. For JavaScript and TypeScript packages DepCart writes npm install, yarn add, pnpm add, bun add or deno add commands, and detects the right one from your lockfile (package-lock.json, yarn.lock, pnpm-lock.yaml, bun.lock or deno.json).
Which package registries does DepCart support?
Ten: npm, PyPI, Go modules, crates.io (Rust), Maven Central (Java and Kotlin), NuGet (.NET), RubyGems, Packagist (PHP), pub.dev (Dart and Flutter) and Hex (Elixir).
Does DepCart download or install packages by itself?
No. DepCart builds the exact install command, one per language, for the tool your project uses. You copy it or run it in a terminal opened at your project folder, so your package manager stays in charge.
Is DepCart free, and does it collect data?
DepCart is free and open source under the MIT license. It has no telemetry and no servers of its own; your search text goes only to the registries you switch on and the ecosyste.ms package index used as a backup.
How can I give feedback or contribute?
Use the Feedback link at the bottom of the DepCart sidebar or open an issue on GitHub to report a bug, suggest a feature, or ask for another registry or install tool. DepCart is MIT-licensed open source: read the contributing guide, pick a good first issue and send a pull request.
