# `node:os`

## Import

```js
import os from "nstdlib/os";
```

> [!NOTE]
> Only the API surface is available. `hostname()` answers `localhost`, `platform`/`arch`/`EOL` are baked at build time, `availableParallelism()` is `navigator.hardwareConcurrency` and `tmpdir()` reads `TMPDIR`/`TMP`/`TEMP` before Node's own `/tmp` fallback. Every read of a *machine*. `cpus()`, `totalmem()`, `freemem()`, `homedir()`, `networkInterfaces()`, `loadavg()`. Throws `ERR_NSTDLIB_NO_BINDING`.

## Runtime support

| Where it runs | Status | Export coverage | Details |
| ------------- | ------ | --------------- | ------- |
| **nstd** | ⚠️ some support | – | 1/8 of Node's own eligible tests pass under nstd. |
| **Browser** | ❔ not tested | 100% of Node.js | It imports with the small process shim. 23/23 Node.js exports are available. No module-specific behavior test ran. |
| **Node.js (host)** | ⚠️ some support | 100% of Node.js | 23/23 exports. |

## Exports (23 of 23)

Each cell shows what happens when code reads an export:

- ✅ Available through every import style. A named error also counts.
- ⚠️ Available through only some import styles.
- ❔ The export exists but has no value.
- ❌ The export does not exist.
- – This environment was not measured.
