Technical Details

This plugin injects a dependency on rxjs in @angular/forms package. This is needed for Angular to work correctly under Liferay Portal npm architecture.

To determine the version of rxjs to use, the plugin scans the parent directory of @angular/forms for the rxjs package.

You can find more information about what happens with rxjs and @angular/forms in this issue.
