I looked into this a bit (in fits and starts unfortunately, as I do not have access to a Windows/IE set-up regularly).
Anything below IE11 will be really hard to support as the JS code is full of the desirably block-scoped "let/const" keywords instead of "var".
Unfortunately, IE11 does not support backtick-enclosed multiline strings in JS, which is how Exolve lets setters describe the entire grid, clues, ninas, questions, etc.
I tried to replace this with '....\n' + for every line (just to diagnose), but it does not work -- there must be other issues too, I suppose. Will keep trying some more, but am not very optimistic, unfortunately.
Can you not use Babel to transpile your script into ECMA5?
Re: Can you not use Babel to transpile your script into ECMA5?
I think that might be doable, but I do not think that that complexity needs to be a part of the core software, esp as IE seems to be on its way to obsolescence (I will try harder to fix Edge issues -- still waiting for a period of time where I have access to a Windows machine for some time). If you try this and are successful, please let me know though. Thanks!
Closing the issue as I'm unlikely to work on this, unfortunately.
Attached is a screenshot of how a puzzle looks when opened in IE. This is IE version 11.885.17134.0 on Windows Version 10.0.17134.885.
