electron-is's Issues

New electron-is-dev version

https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-is-dev

would you consider updating to the latest release of electron-is-dev?

It would mean creating a new major version release because the new version only supports electron 3+

Cannot be uglified in Webpack.

As I said in #5, right now this can't be uglified with Webpack. I don't know what would be a better approach.

I would like to load this directly, I don't know if you are willing to make this a ES5 module, or if that it's even possible, cause you use ... and I don't know how to imite it with ES5.

Does this check if the renderer part is being executed in a regular browser?

I have not try this, but I'm already using this one is-electron-renderer.

However, this have the issue that does not distinguish between renderer process and a browser process, properly webpacked. See this

I would like to know if this support this kind of distinction.

Thanks! :).

avoid using monkey-patch

For some reason, monkey-patch dynamic modifications aren't preferred. I suggest to read these pitfalls of monkey-patching and avoid using that in the library and also refactor the library.

Why functions in the first place?

What I don't get is why is.osx() instead of is.osx. process.platform will only change if the developer explicitly changes it, same goes for the others.
