Supported Platforms

Learn about the platforms, from modern to old, that are supported by Material-UI.

Browser

Material-UI supports the latest, stable releases of all major browsers and platforms. It also supports Internet Explorer 11. You don't need to provide any JavaScript polyfill as it manages unsupported browser features internally and in isolation.

IE Edge Firefox Chrome Safari Googlebot
11 >= 14 >= 52 >= 49 >= 10

Because Googlebot uses a web rendering service (WRS) to index the page content, it's critical that Material-UI supports it. WRS regularly updates the rendering engine it uses. You can expect Material-UI's components to render without major issues.

Server

Because Material-UI supports server-side rendering, it needs to support the latest, stable releases of Node.js. Where possible, the LTS versions that are in maintenance are supported. We recommend using node v10.x or newer. However we still support node v8.x. The support of node v8.x will be stopped in Material-UI Version 5.

CSS prefixing

Be aware that some CSS features require an additional postprocessing step that adds vendor-specific prefixes. These prefixes are automatically added to the client thanks to jss-plugin-vendor-prefixer.

The CSS served on this documentation is processed with autoprefixer. You can use the documentation implementation as inspiration. Be aware that it has an implication with the performance of the page. It's a must-do for static pages, but it needs to be put in balance with not doing anything when rendering dynamic pages.

React

Material-UI supports the most recent versions of React, starting with ^16.8.0 (the one with the hooks). Have a look at the older versions for backward compatibility.
