Description

While testing the library I found that it does not work on Safari 10.0.3. Is there any way to detect the support of the browser before running the test?

File API is available on Safari, buy maybe there is other dependency. http://caniuse.com/#feat=fileapi

Research direction
Investigate the library's current browser support and detect which APIs are required. Consider using feature detection techniques like Modernizr or try catch blocks. The issue mentions the File API, but there may be other dependencies. Look at the library's source code to identify where to add a detection function.
