ReactJS - SCRIPT1010: Expected identifier - Production build not running on IE11

Here is how I fixed it. Not to forget Mr React "Dan Abramov" helped me in this.

So the issue is by default the application was being rendered on IE7 that is not on only IE IE11/EDGE that support the transpiled build. So I had to mention the meta information to let browser know that the intended browser is IE11/edge. Add this in the head section of your index.html:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

Now as I got, you ay also see some error in console that reads:

SCRIPT5009: 'Set' is undefined

Not to worry, there is a way around that as well: https://reactjs.org/docs/javascript-environment-requirements.html

Here is the issue I discussed with Dan on git: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/4255

It seems like the order of polyfills is also a factor. There are several solutions in this issue that could help resolve this. https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/8379
