No more env: browser?

See original GitHub issue

Did something change recently in the env configuration?

I just updated to the latest version in one project and I’m getting a lot of error 'document' is not defined no-undef.

This is resolved when I manually set the “browser” env in my config but I wonder why it’s not done automatically here instead, like it used to be.

Our React runs in both the browser and node, and our app sets both envs to true in its top-level config.

The top-level app is the only thing that truly knows its own environment - node, browser, tests, amd, etc.

I’m not opposed to adding it back, but the more I think about it, the more I think it’s not a shareable config’s job to set them.
