A common problem in PHP (maybe in some other langs too) is the way to move between dates and get the incorrect value, for example when you decrease or increase a month(s):
>>> (new \DateTime('2017-01-31'))->add(new \DateInterval('P1M'))->format('Y-m-d') => "2017-03-03"
Carbon a good library offers some methods to avoid this behaivor and their names are really good:
>>> (new Carbon('2017-01-31'))->addMonthNoOverflow()->format('Y-m-d') => "2017-02-28"
If you wanna get the calculation with this behaivor, no problem:
>>> (new Carbon('2017-01-31'))->addMonthWithOverflow()->format('Y-m-d') => "2017-03-03"
Other methods are: createMidnightDate, localeHasDiffOneDayWords, createSafe...
createMidnightDate
localeHasDiffOneDayWords
createSafe
