javascript - axios IE promise doesn't work

Question

I am using axios for ajax communication. I have problem with IE. IE return error about Promise. IE doesn't know anything about Promise.

I am writing react/redux but I tried axios in plain JS and same result

Could someone help me with it? I am confused because axios should work on IE 8+ I tried on IE 11 (windows 10 64bit)

My trial is written as is in example on axios homepage

thx

You have to include a promise polyfill if the browser has no promise implementation. This sounds complicated but there are really good libs.

The axios docs mention it: axios depends on a native ES6 Promise implementation to be supported. If your environment doesn't support ES6 Promises, you can polyfill.

If you use just JS without transpiling or bundling you can try es6-promise

or if you use babel you can take its polyfill
