date-fns provides the most comprehensive, yet simple and consistent toolset for manipulating JavaScript dates in a browser & Node.js.
date-fns is like lodash for dates. It has 130+ functions for all occasions.
import {format, compareAsc} from 'date-fns/esm'
format(new Date(2014, 1, 11), 'MM/dd/yyyy')
//=> '02/11/2014'
const dates = [new Date(1995, 6, 2), new Date(1987, 1, 11), new Date(1989, 6, 10)]
dates.sort(compareAsc)
//=> [
// Wed Feb 11 1987 00:00:00,
// Mon Jul 10 1989 00:00:00,
// Sun Jul 02 1995 00:00:00
// ]
The library is available as an npm package. To install the package run:
npm install date-fns --save
