Error with primordials not defined when running Node.js with Gulp and Angular CLI

I’m running Node.js version v22.12.0 and Gulp version CLI version: 3.0.0 and Local version: 5.0.0. When I try to run my project with Angular CLI, I encounter the following error:

fs.js:44
} = primordials;
    ^

}

Steps I’ve Tried:

• I have tried updating the dependencies and reinstalling them (npm
  install).
• I have also tried downgrading the gulp version to 4.x but the error
  still persists.
• I ensured that my Node.js version is compatible with the
  dependencies in the project.

Additional Information:

• The error seems to be related to the primordials variable, which is
  not defined. It might be related to the graceful-fs package, which is
  used by angular-cli and gulp.
• I am using Node.js v22.12.0, which could be a potential compatibility
  issue with older versions of the gulp or angular-cli tools.

Question:

How can I resolve the primordials is not defined error, especially considering my Node.js version? Do I need to downgrade my Node.js version or is there another fix?
