Why write a library?
Number of dependencies: one way to tell if a library is not too challenging to be used as study source is based on the production dependencies count. The fewer the better. For example, I chose debug because it only has 1 dependency (ms), while the rest of the code relies on core NodeJS modules - which is exactly what I was looking for - to learn how to build a library from scratch, not off the shelf libraries with many external deps, which in turn are based on more deps. There you go, dependency hell.

I’m one of those legendary senior devs. 40 years of experience. But I’ve been in a rut for a long time. Now I’m recovering from surgery, with 6 weeks stuck in a chair. How can I use this time to update my skills?
For recurring habits I just store an ms string, when I tick something off it adds that time for the next time it's due. Easy peasy.

I really hate it how Reddit uses "m" as the symbol for both months and minutes. When I first got to this post, all the posts said "2m." Only when I refreshed could I tell that the latter comment was made within the last few minutes rather than two months ago.
I've been fighting this in many places, but of course there are fools out there who actually defend this practice rather than be indifferent to it at worst. Fixing it in those two places would actually fix about 70–80% of all such instances, since many websites just depend on those libraries. Feel free to upvote them, respectively.

Caching SSM Parameter Store values in Lambda
The final and most important function of our Lambda, the loadParameters function accepts a single value named expiryTime that is by default set to 1 hour and can be overridden. I have used the ms library to set human readable time periods which will be automatically converted to milliseconds.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing countdown.js and ms.js you can also consider the following projects:
date-fns - ⏳ Modern JavaScript date utility library ⌛️
pretty-ms - Convert milliseconds to a human readable string: `1337000000` → `15d 11h 23m 20s`
dayjs - ⏰ Day.js 2kB immutable date-time library alternative to Moment.js with the same modern API
pretty-error - See node.js errors with less clutter
Luxon - ⏱ A library for working with dates and times in JS
moment-timezone - Timezone support for moment.js
timeago.js - :clock8: :hourglass: timeago.js is a tiny(2.0 kb) library used to format date with `*** time ago` statement.
pretty-bytes - Convert bytes to a human readable string: 1337 → 1.34 kB
jquery-timeago - :clock8: The original jQuery plugin that makes it easy to support automatically updating fuzzy timestamps (e.g. "4 minutes ago").
