I know we can set NODE_ENV = "development" in env file and call from server files const process.env.NODE_ENV;

But I want check it from client-side js files which imported in EJS

app.js // server starting file
view/home.ejs (<script src="/js/home.js"></script>)
js/home.js
.env (NODE_ENV = "development")

from home.js , I have to check development or production to avoid console.log output in production

if(process.env.NODE_ENV == "development"){
    console.log("home page loaded message")
}
