👨🚀 Traversing Time with Intl.RelativeTimeFormat()
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.

What library do you use to handle dates?
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.

Common Date formatter libraries in React (TypeScript)
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.

A bug which is only a bug five days out of the year
To be honest, use a library where someone else figured out the ambiguities and accounted for the edge cases. Good starting point: https://moment.github.io/luxon/#/math
Date-fns is fine for simpler use cases but Luxon is a lot more complete, especially where it comes to time zones.
