Thanks. Today a client asks me to update the website, because "some of his customers" have said they can't use it on IE. I don't know their IE versions, but as I know a lot of those customers in my rural region, I think they are < 10. (My client himself uses Firefox.)
Being a React app means that you're probably using Webpack so you can use polyfills and ship two sets of JS for different users.

Ok so there's a level of indirection between you and the users. I think you need to have a honest chat with your client, come up with a plan and tell them how much it would cost of time and money to make it work with IE 10 and lower.
Maybe you just need to polyfill, maybe it's a bigger change. You have to test that.

Yes, I think I'll do this in future. 🙄😬

Microsoft offers Virtual Machines with IE (from IE8 onwards), download one of them, and test it: developer.microsoft.com/en-us/micr...
Yes, I will do so.
Great, thanks for the link! 😃
