## Better Type Safety

First on our list, we've introduced the use of the newest type-safe `inject` function for injecting all possible dependencies. This is just a small step towards improving the type safety of our source code and aligning our Angular implementations with recent standards.
First on our list, we've introduced the use of the newest type-safe `inject` function moving away from constructor paramter decorators. This is just a small step towards improving the type safety (it is quite good) of our source code and aligning our Angular implementations with recent standards.

## Keeping Current

We believe it's important to stay up-to-date. With that in mind, we've updated to Angular version 15, Nx version 16.1, and Node 18. Please note, this will introduce some breaking changes, but we trust you'll navigate them like the pros you are!
We are all excited about everything that's happening on the JavaScript world. That's why we will continue putting efforts on keeping Lumberjack up to date with the latest version of Angular and any other tool that's part of the Lumberjack suite. This time, we have updated to Angular version 15, Nx version 16.1, and Node 18. Please note, this will introduce breaking changes; make sure to update to Angular 15 before upgrading Lumberjack and verify that your other dependecies are compatible with Node 18.

Configuring `Lumberjack` and the `ConsoleDriver` with the new API should be a familiar compared to how we configure the modules.
Configuring `Lumberjack` and the `ConsoleDriver` with the new API should represent a similar experience that what we have been able to do before with Modules.

It is as simple as passing the configuration object as the single parameter of the provide functions.
Both `Lumberjack` and the `ConsoleDriver` can be configure without any extra arguments or by passing a configuration object as the single parameter of the provide functions.

## Continuous Module Support

We want to assure you that we continue to support modules. The new standalone APIs are a complement, not a replacement.
