Some way to see full dependency tree rather than just direct dependencies

Open tjsavage opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

The "dependencies" list for an element can be misleading - it might just depend on 1 or 2 things, but those might depend on 5-6 things each, which might depend on 5-6 things, etc.

It'd be cool if there were a way to expand the dependencies to see the full flattened tree of dependencies. I could picture a UI like a faint "..." below the dependencies list, that then slides open when clicked to reveal the rest of the transitive dependencies (perhaps a bit more faint font color).

This is not a critical feature for the beta.

I'm trying to visualizing the dependencies between the elements published on webcomponents.org. Here is my first step, an element with a screenshot showing a majority of the elements are built on Polymer.
