**Description**  
I installed and got the sample-app-web running. Then I tried to use websdk in my own app and run into error.

**Error**  
ReferenceError: window is not defined  
at Object.\<anonymous (/home/anton/ZoomBots/js/node\_modules/@zoomus/websdk/dist/zoomus-websdk.umd.min.js:2:504)

**Which version?**  
1.8.3

**To Reproduce(If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git clone [https://github.com/antonprokopovich/ZoomBots.git](https://github.com/antonprokopovich/ZoomBots.git)
2. cd ZoomBots/js
3. node index.js

**Device:**

- Device: dell g5 5590
- OS: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (bionic)
- Browser: Chrome

**Additional context**  
I’m completely new to node and js in general so maybe I’m missing something related to them.

Hey @96anton96mail,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Our team has recently created a beta sample app that shows how you can use the Zoom Web SDK with react. Please see the following forum post for more details:
