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 pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to modify the @angular/forms dependency. A critical discrepancy exists: the PR description indicates an upgrade from version 12.0.4 to 12.2.17, but the actual code change in package.json shows a modification from ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17. This effectively represents a downgrade from Angular 15 to Angular 12, which could have significant implications and requires careful review to ensure it aligns with the project's intended dependency strategy.

Highlights

• Dependency Version Change: The @angular/forms package is targeted for a version change.
• Snyk Automation: This pull request was automatically generated by Snyk to manage dependencies.
• Version Discrepancy: While the PR description states an upgrade from 12.0.4 to 12.2.17, the actual package.json change is from ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17, which is a significant downgrade from Angular 15 to Angular 12.

Code Review

This pull request, created by Snyk, aims to upgrade @angular/forms. However, it incorrectly downgrades the package from ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17. This introduces a critical version mismatch with other core Angular packages, which are all on version 15. This will likely break the application. I've added a comment to revert this change to maintain version consistency across the Angular packages.

[gemini-code-assist]

This change downgrades @angular/forms from version ^15.0.0 to ^12.2.17. This creates a version mismatch with other Angular packages in this project, which are on version ^15.0.0 (e.g., @angular/core, @angular/common). Mixing major versions of Angular packages is not supported and will very likely lead to compilation errors or runtime failures. It's recommended to keep all @angular/* packages on the same major version. This change should be reverted.

Suggested change

	"@angular/forms": "^12.2.17",
	"@angular/forms": "^15.0.0",

Downgrade @angular/forms out of sync with other Angular packages

The change pins @angular/forms to ^12.2.17 while every other Angular dependency in the app remains on ^15.0.0. Angular packages are expected to share the same major version, and @angular/forms@12 declares peer dependencies on @angular/core@12 and friends. Installing this lockfile will either fail with peer-dependency conflicts or produce a build that cannot compile because the runtime Ivy APIs differ between v12 and v15. If the intention was to fix a vulnerability, the version should stay aligned with the rest of the Angular stack (e.g. a 15.x patch), not downgrade to 12.x.
