Versions (optional)

Passing an object inside the browser object key, with keys d and m (desktop and mobile respectively), the library will detect the browser version according to the device the client is using:

import OldBrowserDetector from 'old-browser-detector';

const Detector = new OldBrowserDetector({ s: { d: 8, m: 3 } });

When you use that option, the two keys ('d' and 'm') are required

Object Key	Default (Desktop)	Default (Mobile)	Browser
i	11	11	Internet Explorer
f	20	20	Firefox
