Error: WEBGL_debug_renderer_info is deprecated in Firefox and will be removed. Please use RENDERER. (detect-gpu.esm.js)

Installed via npm, version 4.0.6

Seems like Firefox has added this warning for privacy reasons but effective deprecation seems unclear at this point.

Fixed in detect-gpu-js.

@alexkowel nice, any plans to merge your changes to this repo?

Unfortunately, I'm not a TypeScript fan, that's why detect-gpu-js was completely rewritten with JavaScript. So direct merge from that repo is not possible.
