Attempting to load browser-js on node. I can make a fake window and load it, but if I turn `global` into the fake window, it fails with vm.runInNewContext(source, fakewindow); ^ ReferenceError: window is not defined
'use strict';
var fakewindow;
var fakedocument, fakenode;
fakedocument = {
createDocumentFragment: function() {
return {
appendChild: function() {}
};
},
