IE11. Object doesn't support property or method 'repeat'
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
When throwing an error using JS throw
during IE11 development, the following script error dialog occurs:
Object doesn't support property or method 'repeat'
It is similar to the issue #8438 and #8405 except that it is in reference to repeat from String.prototype.repeat instead of entries from Object.entries.
The Object.entries issue was fixed in a CRA fork https://github.com/EverlongProject/create-react-app/pull/9. A similar fix might be needed for String.prototype.repeat.
The problem does not resolve itself when adding core-js
package.
Did you try recovering your dependencies?
No
Which terms did you search for?
A combination of “object support repeat” in the GitHub issues.
