Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@lsproule/mobile-detect

v1.0.5

Published

React hook + Tailwind plugin for detecting iOS, Android, and mobile devices via user agent.

Readme

@lsproule/mobile-detect

React hook + Tailwind plugin for detecting iOS, Android, and mobile devices via user agent and touch capabilities.

Installation

npm install @lsproule/mobile-detect

Usage

React Hooks

import { 
  useMobileDeviceClasses, 
  useDetectIOS, 
  useDetectAndroid, 
  useDetectTouchScreen,
  useDetectCoarsePointer,
  useDetectWindows
} from "mobile-device-detect"

function App() {
  useMobileDeviceClasses() // Adds device classes to <html>
  
  // Or use individual hooks
  useDetectIOS()
  useDetectAndroid()
  useDetectTouchScreen()
  useDetectCoarsePointer()
  useDetectWindows()
  
  return <div>Your app</div>
}

Tailwind Plugin

// tailwind.config.js
const { mobileDevicePlugin } = require("mobile-device-detect")

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    mobileDevicePlugin
  ]
}

Now you can use device-specific variants:

.text-red-500 {
  ios-device:text-blue-500;
  android-device:text-green-500;
  mobile-device:text-purple-500;
  touch-device:bg-yellow-200;
  coarse-pointer:border-4;
  windows-device:font-mono;
}

API

React Hooks

  • useMobileDeviceClasses() - Detects iOS/Android/touch/coarse pointer and adds appropriate classes
  • useDetectIOS() - Adds ios-device class for iOS devices
  • useDetectAndroid() - Adds android-device class for Android devices
  • useDetectTouchScreen() - Adds touch-device class for touch-capable devices
  • useDetectCoarsePointer() - Adds coarse-pointer class for devices with coarse pointer (touch)
  • useDetectWindows() - Adds windows-device class for Windows devices

Tailwind Variants

The plugin adds these variants:

  • ios-device: - Applies styles when ios-device class is present
  • android-device: - Applies styles when android-device class is present
  • mobile-device: - Applies styles when mobile-device class is present (iOS, Android, or non-Windows with touch)
  • touch-device: - Applies styles when touch-device class is present
  • coarse-pointer: - Applies styles when coarse-pointer class is present
  • windows-device: - Applies styles when windows-device class is present

Detection Logic

  • iOS: Detected via user agent pattern /iPhone|iPod|iPad/i
  • Android: Detected via user agent pattern /Android/i
  • Touch Screen: Detected via ontouchstart in window or navigator.maxTouchPoints > 0
  • Coarse Pointer: Detected via CSS media query (pointer: coarse)
  • Windows: Detected via user agent pattern /Windows/i
  • Mobile Device: iOS, Android, or non-Windows devices with touch screen or coarse pointer
