Summary of Changes

Hello @nejidevelops, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This automated pull request from Snyk intends to update the @angular/platform-browser dependency. However, the patch shows a change from version ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17 in the package.json file, which is a downgrade relative to the version currently present in the repository, contradicting the stated goal of upgrading from 12.0.4.

Highlights

• Dependency Update: This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to update the @angular/platform-browser dependency.
• Version Change Discrepancy: While the PR title and description state an upgrade from 12.0.4 to 12.2.17, the actual change in angular-app/package.json modifies the version from ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17. This appears to be a downgrade from the currently specified version in the file.

Code Review

This Snyk-automated pull request appears to incorrectly downgrade @angular/platform-browser from ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17. The PR description suggests an upgrade from an older v12.x version (12.0.4), which conflicts with the project's actual dependency on Angular v15 for most core packages. This creates a major version incompatibility that will almost certainly break the application due to peer dependency conflicts and API mismatches. It's strongly recommended to investigate why Snyk proposed this downgrade and revert this specific version change to maintain compatibility and project stability.

[gemini-code-assist]

This change downgrades @angular/platform-browser from ^15.0.0 (as seen in the 'before' state of this diff) to ^12.2.17. This is a significant version mismatch, as other core Angular packages (e.g., @angular/core, @angular/common, @angular/compiler) are specified as ^15.0.0 in this package.json.

This downgrade is highly likely to cause:

• Build Failures: Due to peer dependency conflicts. As per the package-lock.json (lines 695-699), @angular/platform-browser@12.2.17 has peer dependencies on @angular/core@12.2.17, @angular/common@12.2.17, etc., which are not met by the v15 packages.
• Runtime Errors: Due to API incompatibilities between Angular v12 and v15.

Angular framework packages should generally be on the same major version for compatibility. The PR title indicates an 'Upgrade' from 12.0.4 to 12.2.17, which seems to be based on an incorrect assessment of the current version (^15.0.0) of @angular/platform-browser.

It's strongly recommended to revert this specific version change to ^15.0.0 to maintain project stability. If an upgrade for Angular v15 is required, Snyk should target that version.
