Clean Up Your Old Angular Apps!
summary
Stepwise migration is the actual plan: run ng update 6 → 7 → 8…and so on one major at a time, use npx @angular/cli@latest new to compare project layouts, save a production build to compare bundle sizes, and expect a handful of breakages to fix. Use --force and --allow-dirty when needed, and on Node 16 resolve peer errors with npm install --legacy-peer-deps. A demo app migrates from v6 to v16 successfully when following these steps.
