Description

In documentation it was described as compatible with IE11.
But it doesn't work at all and has JS error.

Compiled timeline.js file has ()=>{} and another ES6 features, but IE11 doesn't support ES6.
May be problem is about transpiling to ES5.

Start by inspecting the compiled timeline.js file and the project's JavaScript build or transpilation configuration. Confirm which ES6 syntax remains in the compiled output, then verify the result in IE11. Done means TimelineJS loads and operates in IE11 without the reported JavaScript error.
