## Voting phase
To include the community in the feature request process, we open voting for 60 days. Anyone can cast
a vote for the request with a thumbs-up (👍) reaction. When a feature request reaches 20 or more
upvotes, we formally consider the feature request. Alternatively, the bot closes the request.

## Consideration phase
If the feature request receives 20 or more votes, we verify the Angular team can afford to maintain
the feature and whether it aligns with the long-term vision of Angular. If the answers to both of
these questions are yes, we prioritize the request, alternatively we close it with an explanation of
our decision.
