IE11: Syntax error

[samwx]

Syntax error caused by code above:

class googleCharts {
    [loadScript]() {
....

Using "normal" syntax (without [], and Symbol) worked, like

class googleCharts {
    loadScript() {
....

Any reasons to use Symbol instead of class name?

I just ran into the same issue

using Symbol is designed to enforce the singularity of the object. Typically you would use this module in an environment that would get transpiled with babel or the like into something compatible with whatever your browser targets are. That being said I could look at providing a pre-transpiled version.

I'm using this within a Rails application, using webpack(er)
It works fine in Chrome, but not in Firefox and IE

According to facebook/create-react-app#1125 - "We don't recommend using libraries that don't precompile their code to ES5 but are supposed to be usable in ES5."

For now, I've updated my babel config to transpile the google-charts module. But have a pre-transpiled version would be great.

I am looking into a pre-transpiled version for 1.5.1

This should work now
