Doesnt work in IE11

Ts-mixer doesnt work in IE11. IE11 doesnt support ES6 syntax. Any workaround or fix?
Can you provide more details about how to reproduce? This doesn't give me much to go on. At one point ts-mixer was definitely ES5 compatible, but it might require polyfills and/or specific TS compilation settings.
So, i have the same problem too.
I use "ts-mixer": "^6.0.0".
If you look at dist of ts-mixer in node_modules, you will see ES6:
This ES6 goes to IE11 on build.
We have a workaround in webpack configuration:
But I'm not sure that is a right way to solve the problem, looks like you forgot to add ES5 dist to build or we use your library in the wrong way
I think the solution will involve transpilation settings of some kind, such the webpack/babel config you listed above, or tsconfig.json settings like "target": "es5". It's highly dependent on your specific project. Sorry I can't give more specific advice.
For what it's worth, I can't personally guarantee ES5 compatibility since all my tests run compiling to ES6. But in the README, I detail specific features that require ES6, so theoretically everything could work with the right transpilation settings, but as I mentioned, it's very specific to your project.
It seems es6 is the target since at least ts-mixer version 5. Anyway, I agree with @tannerntannern: if you need IE11 support (even its popularity dropped to all time low of around 1% of worldwide desktop browser market share), you should transpile it to ES5 yourself.
