The 'ms' npm package is a simple utility for converting various time formats to milliseconds. It is commonly used in Node.js applications to parse and manipulate time durations easily. 'ms' allows developers to specify time values in human-readable formats like '1d' for one day, '2h' for two hours, '30s' for thirty seconds, etc., and converts them to milliseconds for further calculations.

Compared to manually converting time units to milliseconds, 'ms' simplifies the process and provides a more readable and concise way to work with time durations. It is a lightweight and efficient solution for handling time-related operations in JavaScript applications.
