To easily check if your browser is fully compatible, just open the [browser support example](https://carto.com/developers/carto-vl/examples/#example-check-for-browser-support). It will use two functions from CARTO VL library to check for the requirements: `carto.isBrowserSupported()` and `carto.unsupportedBrowserReasons()`. That page will clearly display in a panel if any issue is found in your browser or everything is fine.

It will use two functions from CARTO VL library to check for the requirements: `carto.isBrowserSupported()` and `carto.unsupportedBrowserReasons()`. The example map will clearly display if your browser has at least partial support for WebGL. If WebGL is not supported, an error message will be shown in a panel instead.

You can grab more information regarding your browser's WebGL support in this link: [WebGL Report](http://webglreport.com/). For more details about WebGL extensions, you can have a look at [Khronos WebGL Extension Registry](https://www.khronos.org/registry/webgl/extensions/). And if you want to check some stats about different WebGL parameters and extensions, you can visit [WebGL Stats](https://webglstats.com/webgl).
