API Catalog Browser support under-explained
Recently, a limitation to the documentation was added:
"It is recommended to use Google Chrome when you are trying to access API Catalog. Errors might occur if you access API Catalog with Firefox."
On the same page, the Desktop says what it supports:
"The Zowe Desktop supports Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Microsoft Edge releases that are at most 1 year old, except when the newest release is older. For Firefox, both the regular and Extended Support Release (ESR) versions are supported under this rule."
The API catalog is recommending a browser, but is not stating what its support actually is. Does not not support Firefox? Does it support Safari or Edge? It does not say.
As for the text, it can be changed to state support for the Safari, Edge, Chrome. We don't support Firefox fully as of this moment.
We plan to look into the actual support for Firefox as part of the 24PI1 work.
Assigning to @janan07 so that he oversee the changes needed for this page
@balhar-jakub okay thanks good to know what our stance is. I was surprised because I've never noticed an issue with it on firefox, I've been using firefox the whole time.
