Hello, I was playing with Supertokens using react and express, trying to just to get the auth page following the docs (https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdpartyemailpassword/quick-setup/frontend). SuperTokens.getRoutingComponent was not working until I have add  (window as any).global = window; Is this missing in the document or was I doing something wrong?

Hey! You don’t need to assign to global in there.

Can u see how you are using getRoutingComponent?

Here is the error when the (window as any).global = window line is commented out

I'm using vite btw (don't know if relevant)

You need to make sure that `SuperTokens.canHandleRoute()` is called only on the client side

That you will have to see how it's done in vite

Ohh, didn't realize the ssr part of vite, I'll check it out. Thanks!

I think this is the reason why global does not exist, as you said it is coming from vite. So the (window as any).global = window becomes the solutions 😄

Again, thanks for the support!
