Node.js v18 Support will be Removed by End of 2024

Node.js v18 support in SAP Commerce Cloud will be removed by end of 2024. Use Node.js v20 instead, which requires Composable Storefront 2211.x. As communicated before, SAP strongly recommends that you use software that is current and maintained, to avoid impacting your systems.
