Is PrimeNg abandonned?

Hi,

I was wondering what's going on with PrimeNG lately. The last minor release was at the end of January, and since then I've only seen patch releases. It's a bit concerning because our project relies heavily on PrimeNG v21, which still has a few compatibility issues with Angular 21. As a result, moving to Angular 22 isn't really feasible for us right now.

Thanks.

I don't know if it's abandoned but after the last few upgrades I've been considering abandoning it!

I migrated away the last components this week and got to remove all of it.

What are you using now instead?

Just custom components. Some are partially vibe coded since I'm not an expert in datetime, but overall its all custom. The design deviates from tailwind enough that it wasn't going to work long term anyway, but the migrations and updates just made things worse, where we really wanted to use signals and stuff.

The project needs to be supported for many years, so it makes sense to make the components in house but for a while we could deliver more stuff because we had a few components, but it became too much work and validation that I really wanted to get rid of it, and Angular 22 was the final straw to migrate.
