### Features

Each polyfill ensures the following language features are present:

1. `Promise` (for `async` / `await` support)
1. `window.fetch` (a Promise-based way to make web requests in the browser)
1. `Object.assign` (a helper required for Object Spread, i.e. `{ ...a, ...b }`)
1. `Symbol` (a built-in object used by `for...of` syntax and friends)
1. `Array.from` (a built-in static method used by array spread, i.e. `[...arr]`)
