User Agent Parser
A tool to decode "User Agent" strings into readable device, browser, and operating system information.
What is a User Agent?
A User Agent (UA) is a text string that your browser sends to web servers whenever you visit a site. It serves as a digital ID, identifying which browser, version, and OS you are using.
Use Cases
- Analytics: Understanding which devices visit your site.
- Debugging: Troubleshooting platform-specific errors.
- Compatibility: Ensuring your web app works across different browser engines.
Example String
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/119.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
The parser breaks this down to tell you exactly that the user is on Chrome running on macOS.
