Hi, I am building a custom external plugin using Angular. Can I use the latest version of Angular, Angular 15 for the plugin? If not, which version can be used? Thanks ---

Hi @Sheereen , Kibana exposes a plugin API to develop a plugin. Any framework can be used to develop a plugin, any is supported. Kibana itself uses React, and most examples are using it, but that is not a blocker to use other frameworks. ---
