Why doesn't IE like the `default` name in the AMD module? - Some browsers such as particular versions of IE treat `default` as a reserved word in JavaScript source files. To safely use this you need to reference this via the `Handlebars['default']` lookup method. This is an unfortunate side effect of the shims necessary to backport the handlebars ES6 code to all current browsers. + Some browsers such as particular versions of IE treat `default` as a reserved word in JavaScript source files.

How do I load the runtime library when using AMD? + There are two options for loading under AMD environments. The first is to use the `handlebars.runtime.amd.js` file. This may require a [path mapping](https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/blob/master/spec/amd-runtime.html#L31) as well as access via the `default` field. + + The other option is to load the `handlebars.runtime.js` UMD build, which might not require path configuration and exposes the library as both the module root and the `default` field for compatibility. + + If not using ES6 transpilers or accessing submodules in the build the former option should be sufficent for most use cases. |
