+NOTE: Prefer [platform-specific providers](guide/ssr#providing-platform-specific-implementations) over runtime checks with `isPlatformBrowser` or `isPlatformServer`.
+
+IMPORTANT: Avoid using `isPlatformBrowser` in templates with `@if` or other conditionals to render different content on server and client. This causes hydration mismatches and layout shifts, negatively impacting user experience and [Core Web Vitals](https://web.dev/learn-core-web-vitals/). Instead, use `afterNextRender` for browser-specific initialization and keep rendered content consistent across platforms.

 ## Setting providers on the server
 
 On the server side, top level provider values are set once when the application code is initially parsed and evaluated.

 If you want to generate a new value for each request, use a factory provider with `useFactory`. The factory function will run for every incoming request, ensuring that a new value is created and assigned to the token each time.
 
+## Providing platform-specific implementations
+
+When your application needs different behavior on the browser and server, provide separate service implementations for each platform. This approach centralizes platform logic in dedicated services.
+
+```ts
+export abstract class AnalyticsService {
+  abstract trackEvent(name: string): void;
+}
+```
+
+Create the browser implementation:
+
+```ts
+@Injectable()
+export class BrowserAnalyticsService implements AnalyticsService {
+  trackEvent(name: string): void {
+    // Sends the event to the browser-based third-party analytics provider
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Create the server implementation:
+
+```ts
+@Injectable()
+export class ServerAnalyticsService implements AnalyticsService {
+  trackEvent(name: string): void {
+    // Records the event on the server
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Register the browser implementation in your main application configuration:
+
+```ts
+// app.config.ts
+export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
+  providers: [
+    { provide: AnalyticsService, useClass: BrowserAnalyticsService },
+  ]
+};
+```
+
+Override with the server implementation in your server configuration:
+
+```ts
+// app.config.server.ts
+const serverConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
+  providers: [
+    { provide: AnalyticsService, useClass: ServerAnalyticsService },
+  ]
+};
+```
+
+Inject and use the service in your components:
+
+```ts
+@Component({/* ... */})
+export class Checkout {
+  private analytics = inject(AnalyticsService);
+
+  onAction() {
+    this.analytics.trackEvent('action');
+  }
+}
+```

 ## Accessing Document via DI
 
 When working with server-side rendering, you should avoid directly referencing browser-specific globals like `document`. Instead, use the [`DOCUMENT`](api/core/DOCUMENT) token to access the document object in a platform-agnostic way.
