#### Stop using the deprecated IE8 mixins and settings

The next major version of GOV.UK Frontend will remove support for Internet Explorer 8 (IE8). In preparation for this, we've deprecated the settings and mixins used when [generating IE8 specific stylesheets](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/supporting-ie8/#2-generate-an-ie8-specific-stylesheet).

You'll start seeing deprecation warnings if you're:

- using the [`govuk-if-ie8`](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/sass-api-reference/#govuk-if-ie8) and [`govuk-not-ie8`](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/sass-api-reference/#govuk-not-ie8) mixins in your own Sass code (for example `@include govuk-if-ie8`)
- changing the [`$govuk-is-ie8`](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/sass-api-reference/#govuk-is-ie8) and [`$govuk-ie8-breakpoint`](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/sass-api-reference/#govuk-ie8-breakpoint) settings to anything other than their default values

If you no longer need to support IE8, we recommend you stop generating an IE8 specific stylesheet and remove references to the IE8 mixins from your code.

You can also silence these deprecation warnings by adding `ie8` to the [$govuk-suppressed-warnings](https://frontend.design-system.service.gov.uk/sass-api-reference/#govuk-suppressed-warnings) setting, but once v5.0 has been released you will need to address them as part of the upgrade process.
