Options

targets

{ [string]: number | string }, defaults to { "browsers": ["last 4 versions", "safari >= 7", "ie >= 9"] } in production and { "browsers": ["last 2 versions", "not ie <= 11", "not android 4.4.3"] } in development when targeting the browser and { "node": 6 } in production and { "node": "current" } in development when targeting Node.js.

Use this option to configure custom target browsers.
