PlatformDevice class abstract final

A utility library to identify and interact with the platform type of the current device.

This library provides an abstraction for determining the device's operating system, categorizing platforms, and simplifying platform-specific logic in your Flutter applications.

Example Usage

if (PlatformDevice.isWeb) {
  print("Running on a web browser");
}

if (PlatformDevice.isApple) {
  print("Running on an Apple device (macOS or iOS)");
}

print("Operating system: ${PlatformDevice.operatingSystem}");
