Can someone please guide me about the following questions:
I'm so confused regarding both of these npm packages.

Codelyzer is a tool used for static analysis of the Angular TypeScript projects. This tool sits on the top of TSLint and checks if the Angular TypeScript projects follow the set of linting rules. It has over 50 rules to check the Angular projects. You can add this tool using the npm package manager to your project.
TSLint is an extensible static analysis tool that checks TypeScript code for readability, maintainability, and functionality errors. It is widely supported across modern editors & build systems and can be customized with your own lint rules, configurations, and formatters.
codelyzer is a tool that sits on top of TSLint and checks whether Angular TypeScript projects follow a set of linting rules. Projects set up with the Angular command line interface (CLI) include codelyzer by default. codelyzer has over 50 rules for checking if an Angular application follows best practices.
Codelyzer in Angular version 8 is the open-source tool that is present on the top of the TSLint. The main purpose of Codelyzer is to verify whether the Angular TypeScript 3.4 projects are following the set of linting rules or not. It mainly focuses on the static code in Angular TypeScript.
The Github repo says it all :
A set of tslint rules for static code analysis of Angular TypeScript projects.
So no they're not both dependent on each other. Only Codelyzer relies on TsLint.
And yes you need both of them for your angular projects if you want to lint your code OR you can use only TsLint and set your own rules but it's not too much fun and I'd advise you to use Codelyzer ;)
