new Socket() fails

[RatijitMitra]

As per the given instruction, I have installed the plugin and then written a function in app.js that contains -
var v = new Socket();

When I run my app using 'ionic serve', I get the following error in Chrome browser -
ReferenceError: Socket is not defined

Could anybody find my mistake? Any help would be highly appreciated...

I can create and use a socket with following code in a function:
let socket = new (<any>window).Socket();
but, if I am not able to declare and initialize a socket global variable. For example, this code in my class constructor:
var socket = new (<any>window).Socket();
gives following error:

Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: window.Socket is not a constructor

I have found the reason to the fail reported in my previous comment: code runs ok when app is launched in an Android device, but it fails when using "ionic serve" to run on browser. I have noticed that this plugin is declared to NOT work on browser environment, so I think everything is OK with this issue.
