📚 Description

This PR aims to remove ^ajv@8.0.0 from the dependencies to avoid peer-dependency issues. ^ajv@8.0.0 was introduced by schema-utils@^4.0.0 which was introduced by webpack-dev-middleware@5.2.2.

By pinning webpack-dev-middleware to a version before 5.2.2, we can avoid having ^ajv@8.0.0 as a dependency.

I'm gonna look into it, probably one of the other dependencies has been updated to use a newer version of schema utils.

Is this issue causing any runtime errors for you, or is it just npm complaining? Asking to know how to prioritize this one.

[ikselll]

I have a npm lint script like that:

"lint": "check-peer-dependencies && eslint --ext .js,.vue .",

plus husky hooks on commit.

So no - it's not runtime but I think it's important to check it regularly and not disabling it because of ajv mismatch.
