What is Browser Support?

Define browser support

What browsers do we support?

Chop Chop supports the latest, stable releases of all major browsers and platforms. On Windows we also support Internet Explorer 11.

Mobile Devices

Chop Chop supports the latest versions of iOS, Android and Windows using the default browser.

Leaving old browsers behind

We have taken the decision to drop support for older versions of IE and other browsers based on several key things.

  • Progressive enhancement
    We want to use the latest technologies available to us, such as Flexbox. While this is not supported in older browsers, doesn’t mean those users will be unable to use the website. It means their experience will be different to modern browsers – websites don’t have to look the same in everything.
  • Mobile First
    We want our websites to be as fast as possible. Supporting older browsers can compromise the experience.
  • Release Cycles
    Browser makers are releasing a huge number of versions each year. Keeping track and supporting all of these is virtually impossible. We should try and support as much as possible but also accept websites don’t have to look the same in every browser.
