date-fns VS PDFKit

// Prevent the date to lose the milliseconds when passed to new Date() in IE10 return new (argument.constructor as GenericDateConstructor)( +argument, ); // Source: https://github.com/date-fns/date-fns/blob/5c1adb5369805ff552737bf8017dbe07f559b0c6/src/toDate/index.ts#L46

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.

PDFkit is one of the oldest and most well-established PDF libraries in the JavaScript ecosystem; it is still well-maintained, and regularly updated. This library is a popular option for creating and manipulating PDF documents in a server-side environment, typically using Node.js. It allows you to programmatically generate PDF files by defining each page's content, layout, and formatting.

pdfkit is a JavaScript PDF lib that allows web developers to create PDF documents programmatically. It provides a simple and intuitive API for generating basic PDFs.

Build a PDF generator using Kintone's REST API and a PDF library like PDFKit or PDFMake

https://pdfkit.org/ is pretty powerful, surprised to see no one has mentioned this so far.

If this is a concern for you, I suggest you look at projects like pdfkit, they allow you to compose the content of the pdf directly, without using another format (html) has an intermediate layer.

I use pdfkit at work

Then write a script to export the drag drop. Maybe use a browser function to save the page as a PDF. Or a NPM library using something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/pdfkit

Maybe pdfkit
