Dependencies

The SLM relies on the following third party packages. We carefully review each third party dependency for inclusion based on maturity, maintenance activity, security posture and license compatibility. We also monitor security vulnerability reports

Versions

When possible we specify wide version ranges on our dependencies. We recognize that downstream users of the SLM may extend it significantly and we maintain these wide ranges to minimize dependency version conflicts. We test using both minimum and maximum dependency version resolution.

Note

The SLM will always track Django LTS releases. These are the x.2.x series. This means the SLM will not support more than one Django feature release and that release will always be a x.2.x series.

Runtime Dependencies

We do not list incidental or development dependencies here. (e.g. dependencies of dependencies and so on).
