connected-react-router VS date-fns

connected-react-router : Helps to connect your route with the redux state.

So, I think many people are not familiar with the concept of integrating a router into the Store, but in fact they most likely met the Connected React Router library, it allows, for example, with successful authentication directly in the action, to redirect the user to the /profile or /dashboard page, this allows the authentication logic do not spread beyond the action. To begin with, we will write timings for the state of this store.

Even if I look at the basic example on their GitHub, there is a similar coding pattern.

For this use case, I would use https://github.com/supasate/connected-react-router to make it so changing the state is changing the URL and then just having a link action fire a navigation action.

Connect react-router with redux: https://github.com/supasate/connected-react-router This will allow you to navigate via dispatching actions from the saga.

For the longest time working with dates in JavaScript was a huge pain. That’s why libraries such as moment.js or date-fns are so popular. A lot of times I’d reach for these libraries when working with relative time formatting, but since late last year we’ve had pretty great browser support for the RelativeTimeFormat() method. In my mind, relative dates are just more visually appealing, especially for working with dates internationally. Dates like "5 days ago" or "in 2 months" are far more intuitive for users than 12/12/2023, or 03/11/2027. Folks in the US will see that as March 11, 2027, whereas the rest of the world will see that as November 03, 2027. What a nightmare.

8. Date-fns - Simplifying Time Manipulation ⏳

I work with date-fns and date-fns-tz

In past i used Moment, but I read that we should avoid to use it for future projects. I read someone suggested to use Datejs, but it doesn't seems to be updated, last time was 8 years ago. Currently I'm thinking to use Luxon but I someone suggest Date-fns also.

date-fns : Date handling

Thanks! I used date-fns for the calendar

I've used this before and I like it more

The default date constructor does a really great job at parsing in most cases and things like addition/subtraction along with many other common operations are usually just simple math. If you really want to abstract that use date-fns where most date operations are tree shakable to be left with just a few lines of code.
