Does node.js have equivalent to window object in browser

Question

What I mean is does node.js have object that are global function methods of. Like this in browser:

function myGlobalFunction() {
    console.log(this === win         


        

Answer 1

Yes, the global variable is the global object in Node.js

From the docs:

global# {Object} The global namespace object. In browsers, the top-level scope is the global scope. That means that in browsers if you're in the global scope var something will define a global variable. In Node this is different. The top-level scope is not the global scope; var something inside a Node module will be local to that module.
