16.0.0-rc.0

This release bumps minimum required versions to Angular 17.0.0, Bootstrap 5.3.2 and introduces dark mode support for components and demo site.

It also removes old component-based accordion implementation, which was deprecated in 14.1.0 in favor of directive-based implementation.

BREAKING CHANGES

• minimum required versions are now Angular 17.0.0, Bootstrap 5.3.2 and Popper 2.11.8
• accordion: removed component-based accordion. It was deprecated in 14.1.0
• accordion: removed type property from the NgbAccordionConfig. It was deprecated in 14.1.0.
• nav: NgbNavbar directive is removed, as it is no longer required. It was deprecated in 14.2.0.
• we use inject function internally more than before, so constructor signatures have changed for all components. If you extend our components (and you really shouldn't do it), you might need to update your code.
