@bobbyg603 , @jodaka have you a forked version of the lib yet with the Angular 13+ supported?

[bobbyg603]

@ikruglik yes, our forked version that targets Angular 13 can be found on npm

hi @tobiasengelhardt, I've updated this project to use Angular 18. It's been 3 years since the last commit, perhaps you might let us take over the project?
