System info for Python made simple.

PlatformInfo is designed to provide a simple, yet granular interface to find system information on all major operating systems within Python.

## Features:

*  Return kernel AND kernel version for Mac, Windows, Linux

*  Return OS versions for Windows, Mac, Linux

*  Return OS build numbers for Windows, Mac

*  Return desktop environments

*  Return architecture (Linux/Mac only, Windows planned)

## Prerequisites

*  Python 3 or up

## Installation:

To install PlatformInfo, you can download install it with pip (recommended) or install it from the development wheel.

**PyPi install (recommended):**

`pip install platforminfo`

**Manual install**

Download it from our [Development CI](https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/platforminfo/platforminfo?branch=development) and run `pip install /path/to/platforminfo-nightly.whl'

## Quick Start Guide:

TO start, import platforminfo and create a `Platform` object

```python

import platforminfo

computer = platforminfo.Platform()

```

To access information, find the name of the information you want (in this example I want `osVersion`).

```python

import platforminfo

computer = platforminfo.Platform()

value = computer.osVersion()

```
