Is 51Degree supported in Sitecore 8.2?

Question

Before I start to jump into setting up device detection for Sitecore there is two option available 51Degree and Sitecore device detection service.

I've used 51Degree for Sitecore 7.5 but not able to find any information related to the latest version of Sitecore i.e 8.0 on wards.

Are they still supporting Sitecore ? or discounted?

Thanks

I consider this a software architecture question...

There are a couple of GitHub repos around, but I would suggest 3Chillies Device Detection for Sitecore 8

The foundation of Sitecore is .net, and with the pipeline available you should in theory be able to extend anything. Like Anton said, most of the core api's have not changed.

QUOTE: The initial version of this extension forked the Mobile Device Detector originally created by Alexander Doroshenko. The upgrade includes support for 51Degrees version 3.2 and Sitecore 8 onwards. It has not been tested with Sitecore versions prior to 8.

I have not found a 'out of the box' solution. But maybe this is a good place to start.
