`process is not defined` when used in Vanilla JS (without Node.js)

[DeathKing]

TanStack Table version

v8.21.3

Framework/Library version

vanilla (through Rails importmap)

Describe the bug and the steps to reproduce it

I'm using @tan-stack/table-core in vanilla JS without any bundler or Node.js runtime. It seems that createTable() function checks runtime environment for debugging, which throw an exception for my setup.

const M = [t, c, s, a, n, l, p, m, F, r, f, C, h, S, g];
function createTable(e) {
    var t, n;
    process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production" && (e.debugAll || e.debugTable) && console.info("Creating Table Instance...");

I temporarily use a mock process object to workaround. Would it be nicer to check process at first?

Got the same error, here is the solution I made to bypass that.

1. Pin the umd build package, instead of the default one from the command bin/importmap pin @tanstack/table-core

pin "@tanstack/table-core", to: "https://unpkg.com/@tanstack/[email protected]/build/umd/index.development.js" # @8.21.3

2. In the stimulus controller, import tanstack-core, and use the global variable TableCore.

import "@tanstack/table-core";

...

const columnHelper = TableCore.createColumnHelper();

...

In the umd build, there is no process env check.
