Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Angular released standalone components a while back. Now, with Angular 17, standalone components are the new default.
Unfortunately, the typescript-angular generator still creates modules.

Describe the solution you'd like

The typescript-angular generator should get support for standalone components. For version 17+, this should be activated by default; for older versions, it should not.

Describe alternatives you've considered

There are no real alternatives to it.

Research direction

Start with the typescript-angular generator and its linked generator documentation, then read Angular's standalone-components and standalone-migration guides. Identify how Angular versions are selected and where generated output currently depends on modules. Done means standalone output is the default for Angular 17+ while older versions retain module-based output, with both paths covered.
