  Hi Team,

  We have integrated Angular 18 with Server-Side Rendering (SSR) using Angular Universal. However, when we try to run the application using the SSR build, we are encountering the following error:

  /Users/shubhamchhapre/Documents/GitHub/zx-report-UI/dist/zx-report/server/vendor.js:678916
  window.arjsViewer = window.arjsViewer || {};
  ^
  ReferenceError: window is not defined
  

  It appears that the library is trying to access the window object, which is not available in a Node.js environment during SSR.

  Could you please provide guidance on how to use ActiveReportsJS in an Angular SSR setup, or suggest a workaround to prevent this error?

  Looking forward to your support on this issue.

  Thank you
