Here are some tips for you: 1. If this is your first time, please read our contributor guidelines: [Contributing to Texera](https://github.com/apache/texera/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) 2. Ensure you have added or run the appropriate tests for your PR 3. If the PR is work in progress, mark it a draft on GitHub. 4. Please write your PR title to summarize what this PR proposes, we are following Conventional Commits style for PR titles as well. 5. Be sure to keep the PR description updated to reflect all changes. --> ### What changes were proposed in this PR? **Root cause.** The frontend `start` script runs `ng serve` on Node's default V8 heap. Node auto-sizes that limit from available RAM — on an 8 GB machine it's only ~2.2 GB — and `ng serve` exceeds it during a build, crashing with `FATAL ERROR: Reached heap limit — JavaScript heap out of memory`. Because the script uses `concurrently --kill-others`, the crash also tears down the y-websocket process, and the dev server does not recover without a manual restart. The `build` script already passes `--max-old-space-size=8192`, so only the dev server was affected — an inconsistency between the two. **Fix.** Give `ng serve` the same heap ceiling the production build already uses, by invoking Node directly on the CLI entry point (the `ng` wrapper can't forward the flag): One-line change to `frontend/package.json`. No effect on developers with 16 GB+ RAM (their default heap was already large enough, which is why this went unnoticed); it simply removes the crash on lower-RAM machines. <!-- Please clarify what changes you are proposing. The purpose of this section is to outline the changes. Here are some tips for you: 1. If you propose a new API, clarify the use case for a new API. 2. If you fix a bug, you can clarify why it is a bug. 3. If it is a refactoring, clarify what has been changed. 3. It would be helpful to include a before-and-after comparison using screenshots or GIFs. 4.

If there is design documentation, please add the link. 3. If there is a discussion in the mailing list, please add the link. --> ### How was this PR tested? Reproduced and verified on an 8 GB-RAM machine: - **Before:** `yarn start` (→ `ng serve`) crashed with `Reached heap limit — JavaScript heap out of memory`, with V8 topping out around ~2040 MB. On this machine it failed on the **initial** build ("Generating browser application bundles"), not only on incremental rebuilds — so the dev server never even reached a serving state. - **After:** with the heap flag, `yarn start` compiles to "Compiled successfully" and serves `localhost:4200`, and editing/saving a template no longer crashes it. No env-var workaround (`NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=…`) is needed anymore — the script carries the limit itself. <!-- If tests were added, say they were added here. Or simply mention that if the PR is tested with existing test cases. Make sure to include/update test cases that check the changes thoroughly including negative and positive cases if possible. If it was tested in a way different from regular unit tests, please clarify how you tested step by step, ideally copy and paste-able, so that other reviewers can test and check, and descendants can verify in the future. If tests were not added, please describe why they were not added and/or why it was difficult to add. --> ### Was this PR authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling?
