Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the project uses static dependency versions in package.json, which prevents automatic updates and may lead to outdated packages over time.

Describe the solution you'd like

Change all dependency versions in the package.json files across the repository to use the caret (^) notation. This will allow for minor version updates automatically, keeping dependencies up to date without manual intervention.

Code Example

{
  "dependencies": {
    "example-package": "^1.2.3"
  }
}

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leaving the static versions as they are, but this approach does not utilize the benefits of automatic updates and may lead to compatibility issues in the future.

Additional context

Using caret (^) for dependency versions can significantly enhance the maintenance of the project, ensuring that it remains current with the latest features and fixes from its dependencies.
