Problem

Both @angular/animations and @angular/platform-browser-dynamic were silently excluded from every dependabot angular group PR (has happened 3-4 times). Because @angular/platform-browser-dynamic uses exact-version peer dependencies, merging those PRs always caused an ERESOLVE conflict and required a manual fix commit.

Changes

  • Remove @angular/animations — nothing in the codebase imported it directly
  • Remove @angular/platform-browser-dynamic (deprecated) by migrating the playground bootstrap:
    • platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule)bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, appConfig)
    • New app.config.ts (providers) and app.routes.ts (routes)
    • All components converted to standalone: true
    • app.module.ts, app-routing.module.ts, lazy-module.module.ts, lazy-module-routing.module.ts deleted
    • Switched from importProvidersFrom(AuthModule.forRoot()) to provideAuth0() — playground now uses the recommended standalone API
    • canLoad replaced with canActivate on the lazy route (correct guard for loadComponent)

Test plan

  • npm start — playground loads and auth flow works
  • npm run e2e:headless — Cypress suite passes

Both packages were silently dropped from every dependabot angular group
PR, causing repeated ERESOLVE conflicts on merge.

- Remove unused @angular/animations
- Migrate playground from NgModule bootstrap to standalone
  bootstrapApplication, removing the dependency on the deprecated
  @angular/platform-browser-dynamic

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The playground migrates from Angular NgModule bootstrapping to standalone components. It adds application-level providers, converts lazy routing to loadComponent, removes module files, and removes unused runtime dependencies.

Changes

Standalone Angular migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Standalone component conversion
projects/playground/src/app/app.component.ts, projects/playground/src/app/components/*, projects/playground/src/app/app.component.spec.ts
Components now use standalone metadata. AppComponent and ChildRouteComponent register Angular dependencies directly. The component test imports AppComponent as a standalone component.
Application configuration and routing
projects/playground/src/app/app.config.ts, projects/playground/src/app/app.routes.ts, projects/playground/src/app/app.module.ts, projects/playground/src/app/lazy-module.module.ts, projects/playground/src/app/lazy-module-routing.module.ts
The application adds standalone providers and exports routes directly. Lazy loading now uses loadComponent. The application and lazy NgModules are removed.
Standalone application bootstrap
projects/playground/src/main.ts, package.json
Startup now uses bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, appConfig). Angular runtime dependencies for module bootstrapping and animations are removed.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7f337

The playground’s lazy route may no longer enforce authentication after the bootstrap migration, allowing navigation to /lazy without the intended AuthGuard protection. Merge should wait until the guard is migrated correctly or the behavior is explicitly accepted.

canActivate using AuthGuard, preserving the existing loadComponent configuration
