Why is it difficult to determine dependencies in a project?
The difficulty of accurately determining dependencies is that they could occur between tasks of the same projects, but a task of one project could also be dependent on a task of another project. Furthermore, a task can be preceded or succeeded by multiple tasks.
What do all dependencies have in common?

What’s the difference between pub dependencies and Dev dependencies?
There are two types of dependencies, one is regular and the other is dev. Regular dependencies are listed under dependencies:—these are packages that anyone using your package will also need. Dependencies that are only needed in the development phase of the package itself are listed under dev_dependencies.
When does a dependency become a Dev dependency?
The rule for deciding between a regular or dev dependency is simple: If the dependency is imported from something in your lib or bin directories, it needs to be a regular dependency. If it’s only imported from test, example, etc. it can and should be a dev dependency.
