So it is possible to use SDK everywhere (as browser global variable, with AMD module loader like RequireJS or as CommonJS module for Node.js environment).
Also you can use QuickBlox JavaScript SDK with server-side applications on NodeJS through the native node package. Just install the package in your application project like that:
npm install quickblox --save

var QB = require('quickblox');
// OR to create many QB instances
var QuickBlox = require('quickblox').QuickBlox;
var QB1 = new QuickBlox();
var QB2 = new QuickBlox();QuickBlox JavaScript SDK, zip archive
