date-fns VS Luxon

datefns is an alternative library that has a different philosophy. Rather than using a different type to represent dates, it has you continue using native dates, but provides tons of functions to do common tasks like parsing, formatting and date math.

Good job creating a library. I'd would only like to know what benefit this library provides over more established libraries, such as date-fns? https://date-fns.org/

date-fns is a lightweight library that works with built-in Dates and can perform arithmetic.

Definitely also worth mentioning is date-fns

We are using three libraries inside our projects, which are moment Moment.js, Day.js, and date-fns.

I'd consider using a library to help you out. Maybe something like https://date-fns.org, you could combine isBefore and isAfter to create a isInRange. Once you have that you can loop though your dateArr and for each entry, check if it's in any of your given ranges then increment the count.

OT: moment.js is deprecated, if u can, use date-fns.

Web-site:https://date-fns.org/ Github page: https://github.com/date-fns/date-fns Demo: – License: MIT Github stars: 22.8k Contribution guideline: Yes Date-fns provides the most comprehensive, yet simple and consistent toolset for manipulating JavaScript dates in a browser & Node.js. It works well with modern module bundlers such as webpack, Browserify, or Rollup. Date-fns is built using pure functions and always returns a new date instance instead of changing the passed one. With the support of an amazing community, date-fns has dozens of locales.

Luxon

Enough that they decided to go for a fresh start instead: https://github.com/moment/luxon

I've been using Luxon (https://github.com/moment/luxon). It's been great.

// import trick from https://github.com/moment/luxon/issues/854 import { DateTime } from "luxon/src/luxon"; console.log("Yesterday was", DateTime.now().minus({ day: 1 }).toJSDate());

As the Luxon project says:

Note that there exists a spiritual successor to Moment.js, Luxon[1]. The creator was a Moment maintainer and it lives under the Moment project umbrella.

If the native Date object is not sufficient for you, I'd recommend using a date library. One that I like is Luxon.

The luxon date library, (created by one of the maintainers of moment ) has an different approach.

Now, let’s check out how we can use different date formats with the help of i18next and Luxon to handle date and time.
