But if you substitute “libraries” for “software supply chain”, don’t you think it’s pretty close to still being true? Libraries, SDKs, APIs, a framework, a language, a compiler/interpreter, a OS/kernel, testing framework, perf testing, debugger, IDE, version control system, hosting site, documentation site, etc. Obviously, there are rare instances when there is a mostly standalone app (or some ecosystem that isn’t based on OSS), but those seem to be the rare exceptions, rather than the rule. |
