About this tool

IconVault's Dependabot Config Generator builds a correct dependabot.yml for GitHub Dependabot without memorizing YAML syntax. Choose from 14 package ecosystems (npm, pip, bundler, cargo, composer, docker, github-actions, gomod, gradle, maven, nuget, terraform, hex, elm), set the directory, schedule (daily, weekly, monthly), target branch, reviewers, assignees and labels, and watch the live YAML update as you configure it.

Everything runs 100% in your browser: no sign-up, nothing uploaded, free to use. Copy the finished config or download it as dependabot.yml and drop it into .github/ to start getting automated dependency update pull requests. It is the fastest way to enable Dependabot correctly across single-repo and multi-directory projects.
