How to Deploy & Use aFarkas/html5shiv

HTML5 Shiv Deployment and Usage Guide

1. Prerequisites

  • Runtime: HTML5 Shiv is a JavaScript library that runs in web browsers. No additional runtime installation is required.
  • Development Tools: Node.js and npm (for building from source)
  • Browser Support: Designed for legacy Internet Explorer browsers (IE 6-8) that don't support HTML5 semantic elements

2. Installation

Option 1: Using Package Managers

npm:

npm install html5shiv

Bower:

bower install html5shiv

Option 2: Manual Download

Download the latest release from the GitHub releases page or use the CDN links:

<!-- HTML5 Shiv for IE 6-8 -->
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/html5shiv/3.7.3/html5shiv.min.js"></script>
<![endif]-->

Option 3: Build from Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/aFarkas/html5shiv.git
cd html5shiv

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

3. Configuration

HTML5 Shiv requires no configuration files or environment variables. The library automatically detects browser capabilities and applies necessary fixes.

Optional Configuration

You can configure HTML5 Shiv through the window.html5 object before loading the script:

<script>
  window.html5 = {
