Hello everyone,
I need to know the compatibility detail of Astro with the current famous browser but I'm unable to find it in the docs.
Or do I just need to look for the compatibility of ECMAScript Modules?https://caniuse.com/?search=ECMAScript Modules

Hi @jade vine. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Astro is designed to be compatible with modern browsers that support ECMAScript Modules. However, the specific minimum versions of browsers that Astro supports are not explicitly mentioned in the provided extracts.
Astro uses Vite under the hood, and Vite requires a minimum of Chrome 87 as per the extract from Github issue 6186 (https://github.com/withastro/astro/issues/6186). Also, Vite 5, which Astro uses, doesn't support Safari 13 as per the extract from Github issue 9601 (https://github.com/withastro/astro/issues/9601).
It's also worth noting that Astro is not built to support IE 11 as per the extract from Github issue 6158 (https://github.com/withastro/astro/issues/6158).
For more specific browser compatibility, you might need to refer to the compatibility of ECMAScript Modules as you suggested, or check the compatibility of Vite since Astro is built on top of it.
