I’ve written about the death of Internet Explorer before over on CSS Tricks and A List Apart, perhaps prematurely, but we’ve finally reached a tipping point.

The majority of popular JavaScript frameworks have already dropped support:

• Vue 3
• Preact 11
• Angular 13
• Ember 4
• Ionic, a library of UI components
• Marko, the Javascript framework from Ebay
• AMP from Google
• SolidJS (a more recent JS framework)
• React 18

The React framework itself does offer support for IE11 but some projects popular in the React ecosystem have dropped the browser. For example version 5 of MobX, released a few years ago, and the animation library Framer Motion. React dropped support for Internet Explorer with the release of version 18.

Bootstrap, still the most popular CSS framework, officially dropped support for IE with the release of Bootstrap 5. Tailwind, another popular CSS library, also dropped support for IE11 with the release of version 2.

WordPress dropped support with the release of version 5.8. Drupal will drop support with the forthcoming release of Drupal 10.

The list of companies that have dropped support is growing by the day, and includes: Adobe, Dailymotion, Skillshare, LinkedIn, Twitter, SAP, among many others.

Many of Microsoft's own products have already dropped support: Microsoft Teams web app ended support in November 2020. Microsoft 365 apps and services dropped support on August, 2021.

Windows 11 does not include Internet Explorer. On Windows 10 Internet Explorer 11 will be retired and go out of support on June 15, 2022.

Senior Director of Engineering at GoDaddy tweeted back in 2020: “We dropped support @GoDaddy for IE11 in April. We've seen 25% bundle size reductions since targeting modern JavaScript for transpilation”

It is now Safari that is the major outlier. Few users are stuck on old versions of Chrome or Firefox, but plenty of users get stuck on old versions of iOS.
