Angular is the best framework for developing a design system due to the wide range of features provided by the framework, including the ability to compile to custom elements. This is in addition to the power of Angular schematics that has allowed us to automatically install and setup the library in every project, as well as generate key components that are specific to our design system, and organization with just one command.

Hi there, I'm looking at trying to get the angular library compiled at a different version then the project implementing it.

Thank you in advance!
