Best Alternatives to moment

Parse, validate, manipulate, and display dates in JavaScript

Why look for an alternative?

Moment.js is officially in maintenance mode and the team recommends migrating to alternatives. It's mutable, not tree-shakeable, and ships 67kB gzipped — a heavy cost for any modern web app.
