How can I use it in Javascript? with my.net core application

As you may know, starting with iPadOS 13, the Safari web browser on iPadOS defaults to sending a User-Agent string that appears to be from a macOS device instead of an iOS or an iPadOS device. Is there a way that Bowser can detect whether the device is actually an iPad? Can you give an example about the best way to do this? Thanks!

Solved it like this if anyone is interested 👍

  const bowserParser = Bowser.getParser(window.navigator.userAgent || window.navigator.vendor);
  const isMacOS = /macos/i.test(bowserParser.getOSName());
  const isTouchScreen = navigator.maxTouchPoints >= 1;

  // checks if it is "macOS" (ipadOS big screens) and if its possible to use touch interactions (can't do that on mac)
  const isIpadOS = isTouchScreen && isMacOS;
