Uncaught TypeError: global is undefined

[raboof]

When I check out the project, npm install, npm run start and open the sample in the browser (tried both Firefox and Chromium), I don't get a functional sample:

And in the javascript console:

Uncaught TypeError: global is undefined
    parcelRequire<["node_modules/node-libs-browser/node_modules/buffer/index.js"]< index.js:43
    newRequire src.f10117fe.js:47
    localRequire src.f10117fe.js:53
    parcelRequire<["node_modules/lodash/lodash.js"]< src.f10117fe.js:2377
    newRequire src.f10117fe.js:47
    localRequire src.f10117fe.js:53
    parcelRequire<["src/micromerge.ts"]< micromerge.ts:3
    newRequire src.f10117fe.js:47
    localRequire src.f10117fe.js:53
    parcelRequire<["src/bridge.ts"]< bridge.ts:5
    newRequire src.f10117fe.js:47
    localRequire src.f10117fe.js:53
    parcelRequire<["src/index.ts"]< index.ts:1
    newRequire src.f10117fe.js:47
    parcelRequire src.f10117fe.js:81
    <anonymous> src.f10117fe.js:120

npm run test is fine, node v14.18.1, npm 6.14.15

the global seems to have been removed from buffer between 4.x and 5.0 (in feross/buffer@8746070#diff-e727e4bdf3657fd1d798edcd6b099d6e092f8573cba266154583a746bba0f346R41), but node-libs-browser is still on 4.x and not interested in updating.

Thanks for the bug report!

Can you try pulling latest main and see if that fixes it? I tried a change to our parcel dependency which may be related: eef2525

That seems to have done the trick, thanks!

(I had to explicitly npm install parcel for the parcel command to become available - that might be something to mention in the README?)
