Temporal - A trustworthy alternative for (legacy) moment.js ?

I recently wrote a post about moment.js that it has become legacy and suggested some alternatives like dayjs, luxon and date-fns and found out about Temporal being developed by TC39.

Going down the history line, Date was actually copied from java.Util.Date and evolved from there. Date is something which is used in almost any type of project you do and you know well that you have to rely on external libraries if complexities occur in calculation or manipulations of date.

Since moment.js has become legacy, Temporal could be a very well prospect to move forward with. The really cool part is that, it is a global Object that acts as a top-level namespace.

I find it really cool by the top level looks of it. Let me know how you find it =)

Happy coding! πŸš€πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’»πŸŒ
