Spectre uses Autoprefixer to make most styles compatible with earlier browsers and Normalize.css for CSS resets. Spectre is designed for modern browsers. For best compatibility, these browsers are recommended:
- Chrome (LAST 4)
- Microsoft Edge (LAST 4)
- Firefox (EXTENDED SUPPORT RELEASE)
- Safari (LAST 4)
- Opera (LAST 4)
- Internet Explorer 10+
Spectre supports Internet Explorer 10+, but some HTML5 and CSS3 features are not perfectly supported by Internet Explorer.

For reasons too complicated to be explained, the following complex procedure is needed to generate a result css that switch between dark and light with data-theme.
- Make sure any changes (including build results) are committed and workspace is clean.
- Go to this commit and replace
src/_variables.scssandsrc/_codes.scsson workspace with left side version on the commit. - Run the following to build
docker run --rm -v `pwd`:/app -w /app -it fzxu/spectre-dev gulp build- Get diff of result css (
-for dark version (current committed versions),+for light version)
git diff dist/spectre.css > tmp.diff- Run the merge script to generate result css:
python merge_css.py &> spectre.css- Copy
spectre.cssout, and clean up tmp files and workspace.
