# Navigator

`window.navigator`  or `navigator`   is a **read-only** property and contains different methods and functions related to the browser. 

Let's look at a  few examples of navigation.

1. **navigator.appName**: It gives the name of the browser application

   ```javascript
   navigator.appName; 
   // "Netscape"
   ```

   > ***Note:*** "Netscape" is the application name for IE11, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
2. **navigator.cookieEnabled**: Returns a boolean value based on the cookie value in the browser.

   ```javascript
   navigator.cookieEnabled;
   //true
   ```
3. **navigator.platform**: Provides information about the browser operating system.

   ```javascript
   navigator.patform;
   "MacIntel"
   ```
