-
-This package provides URLs for the [Polyfill Service] which sets a consistent baseline for JavaScript code used by the user-facing applications which comprise FT.com. This package is integrated with the [shell component].
-
-[Polyfill Service]: https://polyfill.io/
-
-## Getting started
-
-This package is compatible with Node 12+ and is distributed on npm.
-
-```sh
-npm install --save @financial-times/dotcom-ui-polyfill-service
-```
-
-After installing the package you can use it to create `<script>` tags or integrate it with the [JavaScript bootstrap].
-
-[JavaScript bootstrap]: ../dotcom-ui-bootstrap/README.md
-
-
-## Client-side API
-
-There is no client-side integration required. The bootstrap component can only be used on the server-side.
-
-
-## Server-side API
-
-### `core()`
-
-A script bundle URL configured to provide a limited set of features intended to be loaded by browsers which fail to [cut the mustard]. and should receive a "core" experience.
-
-### `enhanced()`
-
-A script bundle URL configured to provide a full set of features (up to ES2017) intended to be loaded by browsers which successfully [cut the mustard] and should receive an "enhanced" experience.
