Helm terminology

Term
Description

Dependency

This is what may be referred to as a component in other systems. It is the firmware, software, patches, or operating system that is installed on the physical representations of your device (e.g., Windows, OpenSSL). In this help center, it is referred to as a dependency component. Note: We are in the process of moving from using the term, dependency, to component in our UI (and therefore, docs), thus you will see these terms used interchangeably during this transition. Currently, both of these terms refer to the same thing.

Component

Currently this means the same as dependency. See note above.

Version

This is the dependency component’s version (e.g., 10.1 for Windows).

Supplier

This is the dependency component’s supplier’s name (e.g., Microsoft for Windows).

Chip

Chips are used like tags. In the editable state, they include an x to remove them.

Depending on the use case, some chip states can only be removed by unchecking the drop-down options.

Badge

Badges are used for elements to indicate things like matching sources or that a dependency was not found in the NVD.

Panel

Panels refer to panels that slide-out from the right of the main page. You can close a panel to return to the main (or parent) page from which it was launched.
