Overview

enum that defines available device types. You can use .current
to get the current device type.
Interface orientation
KeyboardKit has a platform-agnostic InterfaceOrientation
enum that defines interface orientations. You can use .current
to get the current interface orientation.
Screen sizes
KeyboardKit has CGSize
extensions to help detecting device types, like .iPadScreenPortrait

rotation-agnostic function that compares.
