## Known Limitations ⛔
- Advanced screen information (multiple monitors, DPI settings)
- Only main display supported
- No built-in multi-monitor support
- Would require platform-specific implementations:
- Windows: EnumDisplayMonitors()
- Linux: XRandR extension
- macOS: NSScreen API
- Window minimize/restore operations (unsupported in libnut-core)
