Problem description

  • cannot access 'window' in server side when building gatsby

Causes of this problem

Kyle said:
during development, react components are only run in the browser where window is defined. When building, Gatsby renders these components on the server where window is not defined


Solutions

  • access window in componentDidMount
  • check that window exists before accessing it
