What's changing in Birdor

A production-grade upgrade of Browser API Lab: unified capability scanning, top-level browser environment snapshot, and new WebAuthn/WebGPU read-only playgrounds.

• Added a new Browser Environment Snapshot panel: user agent, platform, brand/version, viewport, DPR, secure-context status, hardware concurrency, languages, touch points.
• Implemented a fully hydration-safe detection architecture using effect-driven state transitions (no server/client mismatches).
• Expanded the capability scanner to 8 APIs: Notifications, Web Share, Clipboard, Geolocation, Service Worker, EyeDropper, WebAuthn, WebGPU.
• Introduced WebAuthn read-only playground: platform authenticator detection, conditional UI availability, minimal credential-creation example.
• Added WebGPU read-only playground: navigator.gpu detection, adapter/device example code.
• Refined two-column layout to match Birdor Tools design: left = capability scanner, right = interactive playgrounds.
• Improved stability across Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox with unified capability models.
• Playgrounds now expose developer-oriented debugging info and safe example code.

Documented Tailwind @layer behavior on older Safari versions and established Birdor’s support matrix for modern browsers.

• Analyzed why Safari ≤15.3 drops all Tailwind CSS styles due to missing `@layer` support.
• Removed cascade-layers polyfills that caused layout regressions in Chrome and Firefox.
• Defined official support policy: Safari 15.4+ required for complete Tailwind compatibility.
• Delivered optional fallback strategy using a custom PostCSS ‘layer unwrap’ plugin for legacy builds.
• Improved engineering notes for CSS compatibility across Birdor Tools.

Unified the SSR-safe design patterns across tools that rely on window/navigator APIs.

• Replaced all synchronous feature checks with effect-based detectors.
• Eliminated initial server/client mismatches by introducing null-state capability indicators.
• Applied the new detection pattern to Web Share, Clipboard, Geolocation, EyeDropper, WebAuthn, WebGPU, and environment info modules.
• Ensures reliable rendering under both App Router SSR and static export.

Improved maintainability and readability for Browser API Lab internals.

• Extracted environment detection into a reusable `useBrowserEnvInfo()` hook.
• Unified capability cards, status badges, and playground structures.
• Refactored detection logic to be more modular and future-proof (ready for WebRTC, Local Fonts API, Bluetooth, File System Access).
• Improved state naming and classification for readability.
