Possible documentation issue regarding NODE_ENV

[brentpayton]

Should the line

process.env.NODE_ENV === "dev";

be

process.env.NODE_ENV = "dev";

?

No. You should not assign NODE_ENV in your code, this value comes from the system path variables. The documention is explaining something that happens only in dev mode, OR: process.env.NODE_ENV === "development"
