Global Variables in Node.js
Global variable can be accessed anywhere in the project.
Global variables can be initialized with a value and that value can be changed.
Regular variable can be accessed anywhere in the file.
Global variable can be defined by global object as below.
<%
global.globalVariable = "This can be accessed anywhere!";
console.log(globalVariable); // Output: "This can be accessed anywhere!"
%>
if you set the 'use strict' directive, Node will disable implicit globals and you will likely end up with an error at runtime rather than a working script.
