Tiny (~2KB) vanilla JS developers-friendly library that provides information about host browser and OS.
A goal of this library **isn't** creation of the all-knowing and heavy database. Rather focus is to keep is small and light.
Eg if you want to focus on major browsers and platforms.

Demo: https://smartbear.github.io/browser-info/

`detect()` method and assigning `BrowserInfo` to `window.navigator.browserInfo` - this way it is accessible globally.

```js

console.log(window.navigator.browserInfo);
```
