Browser Build

[curran]

It would be useful to have a UMD browser build for this library.

It might be as simple as adding a flag to tsc here https://github.com/ottypes/json1/blob/master/Makefile#L20

Perhaps tsc --module=umd? Though I'm not sure how to specify the name of the browser global introduced.

FWIW I gave the ShareDB Client a browser build treatment that looks like this: https://github.com/vizhub-core/sharedb-client-browser#readme

One option is to do something similar for JSON1, or even bundle JSON1 into that build, but it would be neat if JSON1 had its own browser build "out of the box".

Thanks!

Turns out TSC does not support UMD output with a browser global microsoft/TypeScript#46442 (comment)

I was able to generate a browser build of the ShareDB client that bundles ot-json1 as the default type (and excludes ot-json0 entirely from the bundle). See https://github.com/vizhub-core/sharedb-client-browser
