[Bug] Node.js version mismatch: DEVELOPMENT.md says >=18 but package.json requires >=20

[SRSoham]

Bug Description

There is a version conflict between the documentation and the actual project config.

• DEVELOPMENT.md (Prerequisites table, line 11) says: Node.js >= 18
• package.json (engines field) says: "node": ">=20.0.0"

A developer following the docs could install Node 18 or 19 and face cryptic
runtime errors or build failures because the actual requirement is Node 20+.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open DEVELOPMENT.md → see Node.js >= 18
2. Open package.json → see "node": ">=20.0.0"

Expected Behavior

Both files should state Node.js >= 20.

Proposed Fix

Update DEVELOPMENT.md Prerequisites table:

Tool	Version	Check
Node.js	>= 20	node -v

Opened PR #2209 to fix this. Updated the Node.js prerequisite in DEVELOPMENT.md from >= 18 to >= 20 to match the package.json engines field.
