11	7	## Dep
12	8
13	9	`dep` is a dependency management tool for Go. It requires Go 1.9 or newer to compile.
14	10
15		`dep` was initially developed to experiment with a new dependency management system
16		for Go; but, as of Go 1.11, **the Go project has officially adopted a different approach,
17		based on the concept of Modules**, which is described in a [series of posts](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules)
18		published on [blog.golang.org](https://blog.golang.org).
	11	NOTE: Dep was an official experiment to implement a package manager for Go.
	12	As of 2020, Dep is deprecated and archived in favor of Go modules, which have
	13	had official support since Go 1.11. For more details, see https://golang.org/ref/mod.

5	9	Welcome! This is documentation for dep, the "official experiment" dependency management tool for the Go language. Dep is a tool intended primarily for use by developers, to support the work of actually writing and shipping code. It is _not_ intended for end users who are installing Go software - that's what `go get` does.
