You have to use:

var $ = require('jquery');

or

import $ from 'jquery';

In my cases the following works well:

global.jQuery   = require('jquery');
global.$        = global.jQuery;

or if you prefer "window" or it is obviously present, then:

typeof window !== "undefined" ? window : this;
window.jQuery   = require('jquery');
window.$        = window.jQuery;
