Browsers support #

If you’re using Vite, Webpack, Rollup or another modern bundler, it’s probably going to import the ES Module described above. This is great as it will automatically enable tree-shaking and remove unused code from your app bundle.

However this version targets modern browsers (supporting ES2019 features), therefor if you need to support older browsers, you’ll have to transpile Chūshō’s code.

Vite #

See @vitejs/plugin-legacy.

Vue CLI #

To transpile for older browsers using Vue CLI, you need to add it to the transpileDependencies array in vue.config.js:

// vue.config.js

module.exports = {
  transpileDependencies: ['chusho']
}

Webpack & Babel #

To transpile for older browsers using a custom Webpack setup, you need to adapt your JavaScript loader configuration to include Chūshō. Usually it’s configured like this:

// webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
    // ...
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.js$/,
                loader: 'babel-loader',
                exclude: /node_modules/,
            },s
        ],
    },
    // ...
};

Instead of excluding all node_modules, adapt the Regex to include Chūshō:

// ...
                exclude: /node_modules\/(?!chusho)/,
// ...
