Mid way before release 2.6
Issue #2497 - Fixed by Pull Request #2700. This issue was similar to Pull Request #26, but for the date format, I had to read a bit of documentation pino-pretty, and node-dateformat. Why node-dateformat, because it's what pino-pretty uses for translateTime.

👨🚀 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.

What is your must have npm package on any given project?
date-fns and mitt (event emitter) are also frequent helpers, but I'm considering dayjs and nanoevents for these cases.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing dateformat and date-fns you can also consider the following projects:
dayjs - ⏰ Day.js 2kB immutable date-time library alternative to Moment.js with the same modern API
Luxon - ⏱ A library for working with dates and times in JS
moment - Parse, validate, manipulate, and display dates in javascript.
countdown.js - Super simple countdowns.
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.
js-joda - :clock2: Immutable date and time library for javascript
fecha - Lightweight and simple JS date formatting and parsing
javascript-time-ago - International highly customizable relative date/time formatting
proposal-temporal - Provides standard objects and functions for working with dates and times.
jquery-timeago - :clock8: The original jQuery plugin that makes it easy to support automatically updating fuzzy timestamps (e.g. "4 minutes ago").
