Using with Angular universal gives reference error windows is not defined

I am using angular universal (v12.2.x) and I have a route that directly renders the ngx-monaco-editor with default configurations. While I can see my editor in the browser just fine, in the terminal I am getting a huge stack trace on the server side telling me that "window is not defined". I am assuming monaco has some bindings with the windows object. The question then becomes how do you make this library work with server side rendering?

Stack Trace: ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): ReferenceError: window is not defined ReferenceError: window is not defined at
