Can I use jQuery with Node.js?

Question

Is it possible to use jQuery selectors/DOM manipulation on the server-side using Node.js?

Answer 1

My working code is:

npm install jquery

and then:

global.jQuery   = require('jquery');
global.$        = global.jQuery;

or if the window is present, then:

typeof window !== "undefined" ? window : this;
window.jQuery   = require('jquery');
window.$        = window.jQuery;
