Code Review

This pull request updates the http-proxy-middleware dependency from version 3.0.5 to 4.0.0 in the root package.json and the Angular DevKit package. A review comment highlights that this major version upgrade introduces a significant breaking change regarding Node.js support, requiring version 22.15.0 or higher, which may conflict with the project's current support for Node.js 18 and 20.

Updating http-proxy-middleware to v4 introduces a significant breaking change regarding Node.js version support. According to the release notes and the package's engines field, v4 requires Node.js ^22.15.0 || >=24.0.0. This is a very restrictive requirement that will likely break the build for many users and CI environments still running on Node.js 18 or 20 (which are currently supported by Angular 19). Please verify if this project is ready to enforce Node.js 22.15.0 as the minimum version.
