+### Poetry
+
+Until [version 2.0](https://python-poetry.org/blog/announcing-poetry-2.0.0/), Poetry did not support PEP 621 syntax to
+define project dependencies, instead relying on a specific syntax.
+
+Because Poetry now supports PEP 621, it is now treated as an extension of PEP 621 manager, allowing _deptry_ to retrieve
+dependencies defined under `[project.dependencies]` and `[project.optional-dependencies]`, while still allowing
+retrieving:
+
+- regular dependencies from `[tool.poetry.dependencies]` (which is still supported in Poetry 2.0)
+- development dependencies from `[tool.poetry.group.<group>.dependencies]` and `[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]`
+
+#### Regular dependencies
+
+Which regular dependencies are extracted depend on how you define your dependencies with Poetry, as _deptry_ will
+closely
+match [Poetry's behavior](https://python-poetry.org/docs/dependency-specification/#projectdependencies-and-toolpoetrydependencies).
+
+If `[project.dependencies]` is not set, or is empty, regular dependencies will be extracted from
+`[tool.poetry.dependencies]`. For instance, in this case:
+
+```toml title="pyproject.toml"
+[project]
+name = "foo"
+
+[tool.poetry.dependencies]
+httpx = "0.28.1"
+```
+
+`httpx` will be extracted as a regular dependency.
+
+If `[project.dependencies]` contains at least one dependency, then dependencies will **NOT** be extracted from
+`[tool.poetry.dependencies]`, as in that case, Poetry will only consider that data in this section enriches dependencies
+already defined in `[project.dependencies]` (for instance, to set a specific source), and not defining new dependencies.
+
+For instance, in this case:
+
+```toml title="pyproject.toml"
+[project]
+name = "foo"
+dependencies = ["httpx"]
+
+[tool.poetry.dependencies]
+httpx = { git = "https://github.com/encode/httpx", tag = "0.28.1" }
+urllib3 = "2.3.0"
+```
+
+although `[tool.poetry.dependencies]` contains both `httpx` and `urllib3`, only `httpx` will be extracted as a regular
+dependency, as `[project.dependencies]` contains at least one dependency, so Poetry itself will not consider `urllib3`
+to be a dependency of the project.
+
+#### Development dependencies
+
+In Poetry, [development dependencies](https://python-poetry.org/docs/managing-dependencies/#dependency-groups) can be
+defined under either (or both):
+
+- `[tool.poetry.group.<group>.dependencies]` sections
+- `[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]` section (which is considered legacy)
+
+_deptry_ will extract dependencies from all those sections, for instance:
+
+```toml title="pyproject.toml"
+[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]
+mypy = "1.14.1"
+ruff = "0.8.6"
+
+[tool.poetry.group.docs.dependencies]

-_deptry_ supports
