When migrating from Node.js to a browser environment, pay close attention to any code that directly accesses:
- `process.env`: For environment variables.
- `process.argv`: Command-line arguments.
- `process.cwd()`: The current working directory.
- `process.exit()`: Exiting the process.
- `process.platform`, `process.arch`, `process.version`: System information.
- Event emitters on `process`.
Identify which of these are essential for your application's browser functionality and implement browser-compatible alternatives or configure your build tools to provide necessary polyfills or mocks.
