Detectr.js
Empower web sites and apps design through clever CSS selectors.
This plugin is a very small javascript library which gives you the ability to write clever and specific CSS rules to refine your website design for each different browser, platform, device and operating system.
It has a really small footprint and doesn't have any library dependencies such as: jQuery, Mootools, (...). So, you can use it alone, or combined with those packages.
Get started
1. Get the source code or install it via npm
Start by cloning this repository to your local machine, or just download the source-code into any folder of your PC. As an open-source, the source-code is available in its natural format and minified.
or simply run this command in your terminal
$ npm install -S detectr.js2. Copy necessary files
Import or copy the dist/detectr.js (minified) file to any directory of your website or app. For example:
/ (root) |-- img/ |-- css/ |-- js/ | |-- detectr.js |-- index.html 3. Import the library
Import the library in your HTML files.
Since it is intended to help you create better designs by empower your control on CSS rules according to used browsers, I strongly recommend you to import Detectr.js within the HEAD tags.
E.g:
<html > <head > ... <script type="text/javascript" src="js/detectr.js" ></script> </head> <body > ... </body> </html> 4. Done.
As simple as that. As soon as you complete the 3 steps above and refresh your site in any browser, you will be able to see that many specific classes names were added in the HTML tag of your page.
E.g:
<html class="webkit chrome chrome40 x32 mac osx osx10_10 js svg" > ... </html> Available CSS classes
Detectr.js may add the following classes in the HTML tag:
