It might be also helpfull for someone. It is possible to avoid writing any js code when dealing with global variables in nunjucks.

You need to create a _globals.html file, which contains all the global variables.

{% set some_var1 = "Foo" %}
{% set some_var2 = "Bar" %}

Then include _globals.html to any page, where you need the global variable. E.g. somePage.html

{% import '_globals.html' as globals %}

{{globals.some_var1 }}
{{globals.some_var2 }}
