notSupportedError on event creation for certain events in IE 11

• I’m submitting a … bug report

• Which parts of preboot are affected by this issue? client side

• Do you want to request a feature or report a bug? Bug

• What is the current behavior? I received a Sentry error for notSupportedError shortly after implementing preboot on my project. All of the errors came from IE11. After doing some research, it seems like it’s an issue with IE11 not supporting certain createEvent calls. I haven’t found documentation on which calls are and aren’t supported, but I figured I’d let you know about this.

• If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem by creating a github repo. I don’t have reproduction steps, on account of not having IE to run against and being unable to find that documentation.

• What is the expected behavior? No error.

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? Errors!

• Please tell us about your environment:

• Browser: IE 11 | Safari XX ]
• OS: Windows

• Other information (e.g. detailed explanation, stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. stackoverflow, gitter, etc) See above.

Hi, @tstirrat15, I am going to split preboot into two different repos/projects. Sorry for not communicating this clearly. This repo will only be dedicated to the Angular version. I will have the non-Angular version out in a separate repo and package by next week.

OK, just pushed in preboot@5.0.0-rc.12 which has a non-Angular interface. Please look at the README for details on how to use it and let me know if there are any questions.
