osValidity

Enforces that the os property is valid.

✅ This rule is included in the package-json logical presets.

This rule checks that the os property is an array where all items are valid OS values: “aix”, “android”, “darwin”, “freebsd”, “linux”, “openbsd”, “sunos”, and “win32”.

These values are the list of possible process.platform values documented by Node.
