+## Targeting older browsers
+
+If you are targeting older browsers you need to transpile `react-async` with babel.
+
+To transpile `node_modules` with babel you need to use a `babel.config.js`, for more information see [babel's documentation](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/configuration#whats-your-use-case).
+
+In your `webpack.config.js` make sure that the rule for `babel-loader`:
+  * doesn't exclude `node_modules` from matching via the `exclude` pattern;
+  * excludes `core-js` as it shouldn't be transpiled;
+  * is passed the `configFile` option pointing to the `babel.config.js` file.
+
+```
+{
+  test: /\.(js|jsx)$/,
+  exclude: /\/node_modules\/core-js\//,
+  use: [{
+    loader: 'babel-loader',
+    options: {
+      configFile: './babel.config.js',
+      // This is recommended to enable when transpiling node_modules to improve build times for consecutive builds.
+      cacheDirectory: true,
+    }
+  }]
+}
