# Compiler environment support
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** Compiler support does not dictate the runtime requirements of compiled code.
|
|
|
|
## Officially supported environments
|
|
|
|
The Babel compiler is **only** supported in these environments:
|
|
|
|
- Modern browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge etc.
|
|
- Node.js 6 and newer versions
|
|
|
|
## Unsupported environments
|
|
|
|
This means that any other environment is not supported, this includes but is not limited
|
|
to:
|
|
|
|
- Rhino
|
|
- Nashorn
|
|
- Internet Explorer
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** If Babel works in any of the unsupported environments, it is purely
|
|
coincidental and has no bearing on future compatibility. Use at your own risk.
