Answer 1

I have published a fork of the original library that is compatible with Angular 16.

It also uses the latest javascript-obfuscator (4.1.0)

https://github.com/russcarver/ngx-source-obfuscation

Answer 2

run npm install <dependencyName> --force or npm install <dependencyName> --legacy-peer-deps

This ignores version mismatches and installs the dependency without any issues

Answer 3

I am having the same issue.In the npm page of the library, documentation tells us that ngc-source-obfuscation's last version was published 2 years ago. And again documentation tells us it is suitable with Angular 8 or higher. Yes I accept it is suitable with Angular 8 or higher but since then Angular released major versions. Now we are at Angular 14. In my opinion owner of the library has never been updated his library.
