## Browser support
All modern and up-to-date browsers are supported, including, but not limited to:

* Safari
As of version 3, we have dropped Internet Explorer 11 support.
Browser support for the canvas element is available in all modern & major mobile browsers. [CanIUse](https://caniuse.com/#feat=canvas)
Run `npx browserslist` at the root of the [codebase](https://github.com/chartjs/Chart.js) to get a list of supported browsers.
Thanks to [BrowserStack](https://browserstack.com) for allowing our team to test on thousands of browsers.
## Previous versions
To migrate from version 2 to version 3, please see [the v3 migration guide](../getting-started/v3-migration).
Version 3 has a largely different API than earlier versions.
Most earlier version options have current equivalents or are the same.
Please note - documentation for previous versions is available online or in the GitHub repo.
