A user should be able to user any browser of their choice #92

Currently, there are browser incompatibility issues with Blip. Users should be able to interact with Blip in the browser of their choice.

This is related to Hub https://github.com/tidepool-org/hub/issues/91

Yes this is important, however browser support is something that needs to be carefully thought about, as it can be a lot of work supporting legacy browsers. I tend to say the latest "evergreen" (browsers that auto-update themselves) are best for modern web apps, else you can waste a lot of time. Need to be especially careful with IE, I think IE 10 started to be good but before it's kind of a pain... :)

Also, we agreed that for pilot we target Chrome only right? Just double-checking...

Yes, only Chrome for Pilot. This is a backlog issue to make sure we do come back and address browser support more thoroughly in the future.

In the meantime, thanks for contributing your thoughts around evergreen. That's exactly what the issue is for - collect individual thought contributions until the issue becomes a priority.
