Platform

Where the code runs: the OS name, the OS version, the device model and a family to branch on.

Get it from Platform.current. The class has no public constructor.

Example

println(Platform.current)   // "iOS 17.4 (iPhone15,3)"

when (Platform.current.family) {
    PlatformFamily.IOS, PlatformFamily.MACOS -> useApplePath()
    else -> useDefaultPath()
}

Platform differences

Each row shows toString(), which is name, then osVersion, then deviceModel in parentheses.

Watch out

• The strings come from the host and can be empty. Show them in logs and bug reports, but do not parse them. Use family in code.
