In my vision the best solution is to add this code in your index.html for testing

And this code to build for production (install domino ... with npm install first)

const domino = require('domino');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
const template = fs
  .readFileSync(path.join('dist/browser', 'index.html'))
  .toString();
const window = domino.createWindow(template);

// Ignite UI browser objects abstractions
(global as any).window = window;
(global as any).document = window.document;
(global as any).Event = window.Event;
(global as any).KeyboardEvent = window.KeyboardEvent;
(global as any).MouseEvent = window.MouseEvent;
(global as any).FocusEvent = window.FocusEvent;
(global as any).PointerEvent = window.PointerEvent;
(global as any).HTMLElement = window.HTMLElement;
(global as any).HTMLElement.prototype.getBoundingClientRect = () => {
    return {
      left: '',
      right: '',
      top: '',
      bottom: ''
  };
};

// If using IgxIconService to register icons
(global as any).XMLHttpRequest = require('xmlhttprequest').XMLHttpRequest;

// Other optional depending on your application configuration
(global as any).object = window.object;
(global as any).navigator = window.navigator;
(global as any).localStorage = window.localStorage;
(global as any).DOMTokenList = window.DOMTokenList;
