Moment: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Moment is a popular JavaScript library for parsing, validating, manipulating, and formatting dates and times. It provides a simple and intuitive API for working with dates, making tasks like date parsing, formatting, and manipulation easier and more efficient. Moment is widely used in web development for handling date-related operations.
Compared to native JavaScript date handling, Moment offers a more user-friendly and consistent experience. However, Moment is considered a legacy package, and its development has been halted. It is recommended to consider using modern alternatives like Luxon, Day.js, or date-fns for date and time operations in JavaScript projects.
