## About
Conditional global variable exposition.
This package provides a single function
[`exposeGlobal()`](https://docs.thi.ng/umbrella/expose/functions/exposeGlobal.html)
to expose a variable in the global scope (e.g. for development/debugging
purposes). It's behavior is controled by the `UMBRELLA_GLOBALS` or
`VITE_UMBRELLA_GLOBALS` environment variables - if either is set (to a non-empty
string) the function will **always** be enabled. Otherwise (by default),
`exposeGlobal()` is **disabled for production builds**, i.e. if
`process.env.NODE_ENV === "production"`.
## Status
**STABLE** - used in production
