Is there a way to determine the operating system of the user browsing and also whether it is 64 bit or a 32 bit

    Which "user's" operating system? If it means "web[browser] user" then NodeJS is irrelevant to answering the question; as only data from the browser can be used (such as the easily lied about User Agent header). And if it's not for a "web[browser] user", then the [web] tag is irrelevant. – user2864740 Jul 13 '16 at 04:11
  • use `os.arch()` may be it will give you the system info – uzaif Jul 13 '16 at 04:11

Use nodejs built in module os for getting architecture information

OS module Docs

  var os = require("os");
  console.log(os.arch());  //ia32

you can use process object

porcess.arch  //'ia32'
