Last week, I was given the ‘opportunity’ to write some IE11-compatible #ECMAScript 5. No transpilers or bundlers, only a few polyfills.

At first, I was not excited for this. But at the end, I’ve had quite some fun! It was quite a nice challenge, and I’ve learned something new about the language I’ve been using every day for ages. Gotta do this more often.
