What to do if you depend on bcrypt

As of its last release on 11 May 2025, bcrypt is being actively maintained — the maintainers are still shipping. No action needed. Deprecation rarely announces itself, though, so if this is a load-bearing dependency it's worth having something watch for the day that changes.
