Someone can help/merge?

Thank you for the friendly ping here!

[chicio]

Thank you @addyosmani!!! 🙏

[addyosmani]

Sure! Are there any other PRs you would like to see landed before a release goes out? We're holding steady at ~5K downloads a week (awesome) but I do want to make sure folks aren't feeling blocked if there are important fixes or additions in the PR queue worth taking a look at.

[chicio]

At the moment this was the most important PR for me because in this way I can avoid to use the legacy peer deps flag with npm. Thank you again for your support 🙏

[danieleloscozzese]

This would be a valuable release in order to resolve the --legacy-peer-deps flag when installing with npm, as mentioned by @chicio. The upgrades in the PR queue look like in-range upgrades so far, I myself don't have any great request for another merge. A v0.0.9 including this peer dependency range expansion would be useful as-is.

Apologies for commenting on a year old PR, but did this change ever end up into a published version of the package? I've checked the npm page, and the latest version still seems to be v0.0.8.
