I am developing a react web app that contains the functionality of idle time detection(small scale project). The app should detect the whole system's(OS) idle time. If the user closes the browser I mean not the case user idle for the app, but for the whole system/OS: no keyboard input, no mouse operation, no-touch even when no focus on the app or app is minimized. Is there any way to implement this?

Nope... you could get the idle time the user or client remains inactive ON the web application. Not outside – Giovanni Esposito Aug 12 '20 at 14:46

Here is an example project of implementing idle-timeout in React. You can clone this project and run it on your machine.
// clone the project
git clone https://github.com/bbachi/react-idle-timeout.git
// install dependencies and start the project
npm install
npm start
This is a simple project which has two screens: login screen and dashboard screen.
When you log in with any username and password, dashboard displays with some user table. If you are idle for 5 seconds we are going to let the user know with a modal window and if the user is still idle after 5 seconds, the user will be logged out.
For details, this blog post seems to support the idea.
