This error holds particular significance as awesome-type-loader is neither actively used in the project nor maintained by the author, having been archived. Removing this loader will resolve the dependency conflict, thereby enhancing the project's stability and maintainability.

Why is this change required?

• The dependency awesome-type-loader is causing conflicts and is not being used in the project.
• The loader has been archived and is not maintained anymore, representing a potential security risk.

What problem does it solve?

• Resolves the dependency conflict error during installation.
• Removes an unused and unmaintained package, reducing potential security vulnerabilities.

How Has This Been Tested

Since there are no tests present in this project currently, traditional testing methods were not applicable. However, to validate the change, I ran the project within a Docker container and tested a few APIs using Insomnia, ensuring the removal of awesome-type-loader did not introduce any regressions or adversely affect the functionality.
