Platform API changes should be reported as breaking change

[maxtacco]

Due to recent Platform API changes I received a bunch of compilation errors. Please, report these changes as Breaking changes so it is easier to spot them. Also, no documentation is provided for the recent changes. Could you please provide mappings between old and new platform names? Thank you.

Thanks for the issue! Could you please provide some code of how you are using platforms?

Hi @brandyscarney,
I need to detect if code runs inside a browser (either on desktop or mobile web). Before it was something like this:

isBrowser(): boolean {
    // return document.URL.startsWith('https://') || document.URL.startsWith('http://');
    return this.platform.is('core') || this.platform.is('mobileweb');
  }

Also, I have a third-party component that uses windows platform name.

maxtacco nothing has changed. Call platform.platforms() to see which platforms are active.
What was happening is that the platforms were not correct. At this time when running a pwa the platforms that appear to me are: tablet, desktop.
