What is os-browserify?

The os-browserify npm package is a browser shim for Node.js's OS module, allowing for certain operating system-related utilities to be used in browser environments. This package provides a subset of the Node.js OS module's functionality that makes sense in a browser context, such as getting the current platform.

What are os-browserify's main functionalities?

Platform

This feature allows you to get the platform the code is running on. In the context of os-browserify, it always returns 'browser' since the code is expected to run in a browser environment.

"use strict";\nvar os = require('os-browserify');\nconsole.log(os.platform()); // 'browser'"

EOL

This feature provides the end-of-line marker for the current environment. In a browser context, this is typically '\n', similar to Unix/Linux systems.

"use strict";\nvar os = require('os-browserify');\nconsole.log(os.EOL); // '\n'"
