We had a similar problem with our isomorphic app (and a lot of other problems, you can find details here). As for the problem with CSS import, at first, we were using process.env.BROWSER. Later we've switched to babel-plugin-transform-require-ignore. It works perfectly with babel6.

All you need is to have the following section in your .babelrc

"env": {
   "node": {
     "plugins": [
       [
         "babel-plugin-transform-require-ignore", { "extensions": [".less", ".css"] }
       ]
     ]
   }
}

After that run your app with BABEL_ENV='node'. Like that:

BABEL_ENV='node' node app.js.

Here is an example of how a production config can look like.
