> When compiling for NodeJS, the compiler creates globally scoped variables which is considered a bad practice as it can create unintended consequences. It also causes many testing frameworks to fail.
> the output looks something like this:
> {code}
> User = module.exports.User = function(args) {
> {code}
> when it should be
> {code}
> var User = module.exports.User = function(args) {
> {code}
