  Yup:

  The only thing that “works” is that the initial text input (to be replaced by 
CodeMirror) is a text area, and the “run” button is a real button, and we 
wrapped them in a ``, so you can type in your query and click the button 
and the browser will submit it and ask if you want to download the result 
returned by the query service. But no part of the interactive UI works. (This 
is even worse than the no-JS experience, because for no-JS users we at least 
have a `` element with a vaguely helpful message. IE11 users don’t 
even get that.)

[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T334876: Drop IE11 / ES5 support from the Wikidata Query Service UI

[Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE]

Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE created this task.
Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE added projects: Wikidata, Wikidata Query UI.
Restricted Application added a subscriber: Aklapper.

TASK DESCRIPTION
  As a Wikidata developer, I want there to be a clear stance on which browsers 
the WDQS GUI supports and doesn’t support, so that I know how to write my code.
  
  **Problem:**
  As far as I’m aware, the query service UI nominally still supports IE11 – I 
don’t think we’ve made a decision to drop it in the past. That said, I don’t 
think it’s actually supported very well – T243382 
 has gone unaddressed for years, for 
instance, and IIRC @Michael tested it in a Windows VM more recently and found 
that it was totally broken. (But I’m not aware of any other user complaints 
about it either.)
  
  Let’s have a proper decision from Wikidata product management about which 
browsers we support.
  
  **Acceptance criteria:**
  
  - The decision about which browsers are supported is made and recorded 
somewhere.
  - Potentially, follow-up tasks for e.g. adjusting ESLint config are created.
  
  **Open questions:**
