Breaking Changes

@schematics/angular

• --server-routing option has been removed from several schematics. Server routing will be used when using the application builder. ### @angular/cli
• Node.js v18 is no longer supported with Angular.

Before updating a project to Angular v20, the Node.js version must be at least 20.19.0. For the full list of supported Node.js versions, see https://angular.dev/reference/versions. - Node.js versions from 22.0 to 22.10 are no longer supported

@angular-devkit/schematics

• The NodePackageLinkTask has been removed without a replacement. Create a custom task if needed.

Note: This does not affect application developers.

@angular/build

• TypeScript versions less than 5.8 are no longer supported.
