Extensive device data
51Degrees UAParser provides access to the 51Degrees Cloud service, which can identify over 200 different device properties, such as platform, browser, engine, CPU, and vendors.
Meet the new
51Degrees UAParser
A lightweight JavaScript library wrapping
51Degrees Device Detection
cloud service. The library provides comprehensive device data based on
User-Agent Client Hints and/or the User-Agent. This package can be
used either in a browser (client-side) or Node.js environment
(server-side).
Client-side supports both detection of the current client and
detection from an arbitrary header map, while server-side supports
detection from a header map only.

Small library footprint
The 51Degrees UAParser library footprint is a tiny 13KB, which is smaller than many other available User-Agent parsers available.
Open source with a freemium model
We recognize the value of open source – that’s why the 51Degrees UAParser library is freely available with a limited set of data properties. If you require extra data points or more requests per month, we offer different pricing plans to suit your needs.
Client-side and server-side
Whether it's a client-side webpage running in a browser or a server-side Node.js app, simply type:
$ npm i @51degrees/ua-parser-js --save
Detect Apple devices
Unlike some other User-Agent parsers, 51Degrees UAParser can reliably detect Apple device data. See what results you can expect from our Apple device detection.
A human touch
The device data is maintained and updated by a professional data analyst team on a regular basis.
Getting started
To get started with 51Degrees UAParser, please follow the instructions within the GitHub README file.
Creating a Resource Key is a requirement in order for 51Degrees UAParser to work; follow this link to configure a Resource Key.
Please note, following this link will prepopulate your Key with the recommended minimum properties. Other properties are available, but may require the purchase of a
51Degrees pricing plan.
You can also follow our Configurator guide to create a Key from scratch if needed. Note that if you require reliable detection of Apple devices, the Resource Key must contain the JavascriptHardwareProfile property.
