We're polyfilling the popover API, which is a really wonderful API that allows you to have not a modal, but anything that pops over. And so we're using the popoverAPI for our select menus that pop up for sorting. I'm even using the popOver API for the mobile navigation. So it's really interesting and it works really well because it's doing so little. It's essentially adding a class, adding a click handler and then adding some CSS.
In this episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk about what polyfills, transpiling, and monkey patching mean, how and when to do it, and libraries that can help you out.
