SSR in 4.4.0 crashes

[perrin4869]

What is the current behavior?

Running this module on node.js (for example during ssr) results in: ReferenceError: Element is not defined

What is the expected behavior?

Importing react-transition-group does not result in an error

The problem is this line:

react-transition-group/src/Transition.js

Line 397 in c863158

nodeRef: PropTypes.shape({ current: PropTypes.instanceOf(Element) }),

A possible solution is: Element = typeof Element === 'undefined' ? function(){} : Element

I too ran through the error exactly two hours ago. We tried getting rid of 'react-transition-group' LMAO!
Hope it serves as a temporary solution for ongoing development for me personally.
Cheerio!

@perrin4869 I do too. I tried commenting out the following code on '/node_modules/react-transition-group/cjs/Transition.js' in line 451.
VERY UNCONVENTIONAL WAY TO SOLVE A PROBLEM!
In case, you in need of any immediate solution, hope it works well for you too.
Would love to know more if a solution is up!

  nodeRef: _propTypes.default.shape({
    current: _propTypes.default.instanceOf(Element)
  }),

⚠️ The reference to Element changes between windows (popups, iframes). Prefer testing node.nodeType === 1.

Having issues right now after updating my npm packages
