Peer Dependency

Peer dependencies are a way for packages or software components to specify that they need to work with a specific version of another package, but don't directly include or install it. Instead, they rely on the main project or other packages to provide that dependency. This ensures all related parts use compatible versions, preventing conflicts or issues. Think of it like friends agreeing to use the same brand of phone so they can share apps smoothly—peer dependencies help maintain compatibility across interconnected software pieces.
