</div>

hm, I’m adding  
`window.__socket = require("phoenix").Socket;` to `app.js`, adding

```elixir
<script src="<%= static_path(@conn, "/js/phoenix.js") %>"></script>

```

to layout, but now I get TWO same errors:

```elixir
Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined
    at app.js:5
(anonymous) @ app.js:5
(index):111 Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined
    at Object.create ((index):111)
    at (index):1085
    at (index):1089

```

I have version `0.9.1` and `--no-brunch` phoenix app.
