Browser Support - SAP/fundamental-ngx GitHub Wiki

Browser Support

Fundamental Library for Angular support many commonly used browsers:

  • Apple Safari - latest version
  • Google Chrome - latest version
  • Mozilla Firefox - latest version
  • Microsoft Edge Chromium - latest version
  • Microsoft Internet Explorer 11*

For browsers not listed above proper behaviour of the components may be good but is not guaranteed. Between now and mid of 2021 we will fix IE11 issues if:

  • they block major functionality
  • they are big accessibility issues

After 2020, we will not be fixing these bugs unless there is a high priority partner escalation that will cause a legal problem.

  • Internet Explorer 11 has been around since 2013. Our goal has been to support each of the browsers equally with great effort and desire. However, the modern web has progressed quite a lot since the IEx inception. Modern browsers offer quite exciting features. We would love to move forward. Also, Angular support for Microsoft's Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) is deprecated and will be removed in Angular v13. That's why we decided to prioritize stability over new features for IE11. Our last officially fully support version will be 0.31. After that we will deprecate IE11 support. Most probably most of the new features will be ok in IE11 but not guaranteed. If there are some major blockers or accessibility issues in version 0.31.x under IE11 we will try to address those. We will follow the Angular support for IE11.

A11y navigation support

Fundamental Library supports A11y navigation for it's components.

There is a different behaviour of the keyboard navigation in Mozilla Firefox on MacOS with links. If tab key navigation doesn't work for you with links in Mozilla Firefox on MacOS, check this option to be enabled: System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts → Use keyboard navigation to move focus between controls
