[BUG] With Gatsby.JS, we get the error "document is not defined" on build

[MalkyTheKid]

We tried the basic example on the readme with our gatsby.js implementation.

Running it on gatsby develop, we do see the form and it is drawn fine. However when we do gatsby build, we get the following error:

 ERROR #95312 

"document" is not available during server side rendering.

See our docs page for more info on this error: https://gatsby.dev/debug-html


  867 | 
  868 | // IE >= 9
> 869 | 'function' === typeof document.createEvent ? function CustomEvent (type, params) {
      | ^
  870 |   var e = document.createEvent('CustomEvent');
  871 |   if (params) {
  872 |     e.initCustomEvent(type, params.bubbles, params.cancelable, params.detail);

Gatsby talks about document here: https://www.gatsbyjs.com/docs/debugging-html-builds/

is there a proper way to run formIO in gatsby.js?

Hi Will (@wag110894),

How do we begin the process of expediting this item? (FJS-1190)

We believe this could be useful especially with Gatsby JS on the rise

Hi there @wag110894 I just wondered if there is any update on this as it is also affecting us?

@MalkyTheKid did you manage to find a suitable workaround?

Thanks, Murray
