Dumb question: what does it mean to “vendor” your dependencies?
Best guess is something like “ship required source or binaries along with your end product.” Like static linking but extended to dynamic languages and source control.
- oftenwrong 5y agoTo "vendor" a dependency is to check it into your project's source control, whether as source or binary.
- marcosdumay 5y agoIt's to have it come from some place you control. It can be your source control, but a very common way to vendor dependencies on other languages is to just save them in a server somewhere and install pull them from that on your code.
