When to use this skill

{{SKILL_DESCRIPTION}} Use this skill when working with system operations, platform detection, system information retrieval, or any system-related operations in LÖVE games.

Common use cases

• Retrieving system and platform information
• Detecting operating system and hardware capabilities
• Accessing system-specific features
• Handling platform-specific behavior
• Managing system resources and capabilities

Examples

Platform detection

-- Detect current platform
local platform = love.system.getOS()
if platform == "Windows" then
  -- Windows-specific code
elseif platform == "OS X" then
  -- macOS-specific code
elseif platform == "Linux" then
  -- Linux-specific code
end

System information

-- Get system information
local cpuCores = love.system.getProcessorCount()
local ramMB = love.system.getMemoryUsage() / (1024 * 1024)

print("CPU Cores: " .. cpuCores)
print("Memory Usage: " .. string.format("%.2f", ramMB) .. " MB")

Best practices

• Use system information for platform-specific optimizations
• Handle platform differences gracefully
• Consider performance when accessing system information frequently
• Test on target platforms for compatibility
• Be mindful of privacy when accessing system information

Platform compatibility

• Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux): Full system support
• Mobile (iOS, Android): Limited system information access
• Web: Very limited system access due to browser restrictions
