cross-platform

Share business logic across React Native and web applications by isolating platform-specific code using standardized file extensions like `.native.ts` and `.web.ts`. This cross-platform development approach ensures consistent application behavior across environments.

The best way to detect platform environments in an Electron desktop app is using a centralized `platformEnv` utility. This provides reliable conditional logic checks instead of relying on manual environment variable checks, ensuring accurate platform detection across web and desktop contexts.

Yes, you can use `.ext.ts` file extension naming conventions to isolate browser extension code. This cross-platform pattern allows you to separate extension-specific logic from shared codebases, maintaining consistent behavior across React Native, web, and Electron desktop platforms.

Cross-platform code often fails when switching between mobile and web browsers due to manual environment variable checks. Using a centralized `platformEnv` utility for reliable platform detection ensures consistent conditional logic execution across different operating systems and application environments.

You do not need separate codebases for a mobile app and a browser extension. By leveraging platform-specific file extensions like `.native.ts` and `.ext.ts`, you can maintain a single application codebase while isolating platform-specific code for each environment.

Platform-specific file extension isolation works in cross-platform development by appending extensions like `.desktop.ts` or `.web.ts` to filenames. This automatically routes the correct platform code during compilation, separating user interface logic while sharing core business logic.
