Ask HN: How to build web app with hight browser cross compatibility?

1 pointsby Gametroleumover 4 years ago
Hello HN,<p>A am about to create new version of niche web app. Most of our audience are big, corporate clients. Some of them are using outdated web browsers.<p>What kind of tools are you using that could help ensure better browser cross compatibility?<p>Unfortunately some part of web app might be heavy dependent on JS&#x2F;DOM manipulations.<p>What I am looking for:<p>* Hints like: &#x27;this CSS selector is not supported on X&#x27; or &#x27;method document.getXYZ is not available in Y&#x27; or &#x27;you can not nest &lt;some-element&gt; inside &lt;other-element&gt; in Z&#x27;<p>* Automated test that interact with real browser.<p>* Libraries &#x2F; frameworks that support old browsers<p>* Web browser plugin that could spot problems<p>* ???<p>At the end of the day I will be testing if app is working manually on some of old browsers but I am looking into a way to catch problems as fast as it is possible and having to do less manual labor.<p>What are your thoughts?
