## API

### `copyToClipboard(text: string): Promise<boolean>`

This function takes a `text` parameter and returns a promise. It attempts to copy the provided text to the clipboard. The promise resolves to `true` if the operation is successful and `false` otherwise.

## Browser Compatibility

`elastic-copy-paste` relies on the `navigator.clipboard` API, which may not be available in all browsers. Ensure that your target browsers support this API or consider using a polyfill.
