Build error occurred: `window is not defined`

[Ayo-faks]

Describe the bug

When running npm run build on a non-Windows environment (Linux), the build fails with the following error:
ReferenceError: window is not defined

To Reproduce

1. Clone the repository.
2. Run npm install --legacy-peer-deps.
3. Run npm run build on a non-Windows environment (e.g., Ubuntu).

Expected behavior

The build should succeed without any errors, as it does on a Windows environment.

Hey @Ayo-faks,

Thank you for bringing up the issue. I attempted to replicate the error but was unable to do so.

Here are the details:

• Operating System: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (VERSION="9.3 (Plow)") on a GCP VM
• npm: 8.19.4
• Node: v16.20.2
• Next.js: 13.5.6

I had to install echarts to make this error go away.

Run
sudo npm install echarts --legacy-peer-deps

Then run
sudo npm run build

This should work @Ayo-faks
