It's like Lodash for dates


- It has [200+ functions for all occasions](https://date-fns.org/docs/Getting-Started/).
- Modular: Pick what you need. Works with webpack, Browserify, or Rollup and also supports tree-shaking.
- Native dates: Uses existing native type. It doesn't extend core objects for safety's sake.
- Immutable & Pure: Built using pure functions and always returns a new date instance.
- TypeScript & Flow: Supports both Flow and TypeScript
- I18n: Dozens of locales. Include only what you need.
- and many more benefits

  1. ``` js
  2. import { compareAsc, format } from 'date-fns'

  4. format(new Date(2014, 1, 11), 'yyyy-MM-dd')
  5. //=> '2014-02-11'

  7. const dates = [
  8.   new Date(1995, 6, 2),
  9.   new Date(1987, 1, 11),
  10.   new Date(1989, 6, 10),
  11. ]
  12. dates.sort(compareAsc)
  13. //=> [
  14. //   Wed Feb 11 1987 00:00:00,
  15. //   Mon Jul 10 1989 00:00:00,
