wimd 
wimd stands for "what is my device?"
Basically the express-device gained life of it's own and I had to refactor the basic functionality (it makes sense). Many were using express-device only to identify the type of device and didn't want all the express stuff.
how to use it?
$ npm install wimd
Here's an example on how to use it:
var wimd = ;var mydevice = ; ifmydevice // do something...else // do another thing...By doing this you're getting an object that have the following properties:
| Name | Field Type | Description | Possible Values |
| type | string | It gets the device type for the parsed user-agent string | desktop, tv, tablet, phone or bot |
| model | string | It gets the device model name for the parsed user-agent string | Example: iPhone. If the option parseUserAgent is set to false, then it will return an empty string |
It accepts an object with only the config options you which to override (go here for some examples). The ones you don't override it will use the default values. Here's the list with the available config options:
| Name | Field Type | Description | Possible Values |
| emptyUserAgentDeviceType | string | Device type to be returned whenever the has an empty user-agent. Defaults to desktop. | desktop, tv, tablet, phone or bot |
| unknownUserAgentDeviceType | string | Device type to be returned whenever the user-agent is unknown. Defaults to phone. | desktop, tv, tablet, phone or bot |
| botUserAgentDeviceType | string | Device type to be returned whenever the user-agent belongs to a bot. Defaults to bot. | desktop, tv, tablet, phone or bot |
| parseUserAgent | string | Configuration to parse the user-agent string using the useragent npm package. It's needed in order to get the device name. Defaults to false. | true | false |

Currently wimd is on version 0.5.0. In order to add more features I'm asking anyone to contribute with some ideas. You can do it by making some feature requests on the issues panel, but I prefer that you make your contribution with some pull requests ;)
