• It often happens that for some tasks, you have to install a <package> on your system. During that process, you end up downloading many <dependent_packages> which you might not require once the task is finished.

• When you uninstall the <package> using pip, the process only uninstalls the <package> and not the <dependent_packages>.

• Although you have uninstalled the <package>, the <cache> and <dependent_packages> remain somewhere on your system, taking up memory.

• This tool aims to solve all the problems listed above.

• pip install pip-help

Currently, it provides support for installing and uninstalling a single or multiple <packages>. let's consider that the package name is "matplotlib"and its <dependent_packages>.

• Use the flag -h/--help for further information.

• Example usage (installing a package): pip-help -i (or --install) matplotlib

• Example usage (uninstalling a package): pip-help -r (or --remove) matplotlib

• It can install and uninstall multiple packages in one go.
