 The environment that will be used for testing. The default environment in Vitest
 is a Node.js environment. If you are building a web application, you can use
 browser-like environment through either [`jsdom`](https://github.com/jsdom/jsdom)
 or [`happy-dom`](https://github.com/capricorn86/happy-dom) instead.
+If you are building edge functions, you can use [`edge-runtime`](https://edge-runtime.vercel.app/packages/vm) environment
 
 By adding a `@vitest-environment` docblock or comment at the top of the file,
 you can specify another environment to be used for all tests in that file:
