How it works

Module comes with bundled user-agents.dat file which contains different User Agent entries.

The process of creating it:

• Download the version of user-agents.json from user-agents
• Preprocess using uap-csharp
• Serialize into an XML-based representation (Common Language Infrastructure (CLI)) of all the objects
• Optimize for smaller size
• Store as a file user-agents.dat
