For the last few years Ghost's admin area has only supported the latest few versions of evergreen browsers and we have no plans to change that. If you wish to use Ghost please upgrade to a modern browser.

I generally use Ghost Admin from Edge where it works fine. Just yesterday, I came to across this thing and thought that it is a bug(which isn't since you have no plans to support older browsers). But I would like to still ask you to support the last 10 versions(~1 year) of browsers like chrome and firefox which have a fast release cycle.
Issue Summary
Since Ghost-Admin has issue creation disabled so I am opening the issue here.
Ghost-Admin targets only last two versions of browsers . So async functions(an ES7 feature) are not transpiled(to ES6) and thus it leads to the admin not working on Firefox 50 which has full ES6 support but no ES7 support. I agree that there is no need to support IE11 but I believe ghost admin client should support the browsers for at least 5 years (browserlist config last 5 years ). This config would automatically remove support for older browsers every year.
To Reproduce
Any other info e.g. Why do you consider this to be a bug? What did you expect to happen instead?
I expect the admin client to open in a 3 years 9 month old browser.
