It can be 'browser', 'node', 'semi-node', or 'unknown'.development: A boolean indicating whether the NODE_ENV environment variable is not set to production or in browser location.hostname is localhost or 127.xxx.isNode: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is node.js.isBrowser: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is a browser.isWebWorker: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is a web worker.isDeno: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is Deno.isNw: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is nw.js.isElectron: A boolean indicating whether the current platform is Electron.The code also checks whether the script is running in development mode. If the script is running in a browser, it checks if the hostname is 'localhost' or 127.xxx. If the script is running in a 'semi-node' environment, it checks if the NODE_ENV environment variable is not set to 'production'. The result is stored in the development property of the platformInfo object.
