Answer
Failing to manage transitive dependencies.
A common mistake is not properly managing transitive dependencies, which can lead to version conflicts and unexpected behavior. Build tools like Maven and Gradle help by resolving dependencies, but developers should verify versions to avoid issues. In an e-commerce app, conflicting library versions might cause inconsistencies in data processing, impacting user experience.
