[SOLVED] Trying to install the Clarity library in Angular with "ng add @clr/angular" getting error "ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree"

I am practicing Angular following a book project which requires the installation of the Clarity library for the project through cmd ng add @clr/angular but I keep getting an error (report) relating to incompatibilties:

I tried specifying the clarity version (@clr/angular@12) and using the command --force along, but they all led to the same error. There seems to be many posts referring to npm cache online but they are very varied on views of what is the suitable solution and make me afraid of making things worse by just trying them.

Could you pls help?
