ReferenceError: global is not defined using "await ipfs.files.write('/' + file.name, file, { create: true })" in browser #4248

i got this message using await ipfs.files.write('/' + file.name, file, { create: true }) in browser as mentionned in https://proto.school/mutable-file-system/04

Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: global is not defined
    toAsyncIterator to-async-iterator.js:44
    mfsWrite write.js:99

a workaround that can help is if (typeof window !== "undefined") window.global = window; as in this file https://github.com/scenaristeur/browser-vue/blob/64f58a9843b26b9794c370cd163d586369b67437/src/plugins/vue-ipfs.js#L12
