# Browser support
Material for MkDocs goes at great lengths to support the largest possible range
of browsers while retaining the simplemost possibilities for customization via
modern CSS features like [custom properties] and [mask images].
[custom properties]: https://caniuse.com/css-variables
[mask images]: https://caniuse.com/mdn-css_properties_mask-image
## Supported browsers
The following table lists all browsers for which Material for MkDocs offers full
support, so it can be assumed that all features work without degradation. If you
find a feature not to be working in a browser in the supported version range,

[^1]:
The data was collected from [caniuse.com] in January 2022 and is primarily
based on browser support for [custom properties], [mask images] and the
[:is pseudo selector] which are not completely polyfillable.
Note that the usage data is based on global browser market share, so it could
in fact be entirely different for your target demographic. It's a good idea to
check the distribution of browser types and versions among your users.

## Other browsers
Albeit your site might not look as perfect as when viewed with a modern browser,
the following older browser versions might work with some additional effort:
- :fontawesome-brands-firefox: __Firefox 31-52__ icons will render as little
boxes due to missing support for [mask images]. While this cannot be
polyfilled, it might be mitigated by hiding icons with [additional CSS].
- :fontawesome-brands-edge: __Edge 16-18__ the spacing of some elements might be
a little of due to missing support for the [:is pseudo selector], which can be
mitigated with some [additional CSS].
- :fontawesome-brands-internet-explorer: __Internet Explorer__ - no support,
mainly due to missing support for [custom properties]. The last version of
Material for MkDocs to support Internet Explorer is
[:octicons-tag-24: 4.6.3][IE support].
[additional CSS]: customization.md#additional-css
[IE support]: https://github.com/squidfunk/mkdocs-material/releases/tag/4.6.3
