Time conversion is so simple and amazing documentation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Honestly I’ve used moment on multiple projects and it’s worked for everything I need so no complaints Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It very versatile.
It offers a lot of functions to get rid of manual date transformation, international date handling, add and subtract days, months, hours, minutes and years from dates...
The documentation is very complete and easy to navigate through, and in their website, you can just open the browser devtools and try it live, without the hassling of downloading and creating a new project to test it.
It is offered in a entire myriad of sources. Youcan clone the repository (it is Open Source) and copy it to your project, you can use meteor to install it, download the bundle from the website and use npm/yart to add it as a dependency to your project.
Since it is Open Source, it is an extra check point of safety. It is the community who reviews the code and makes sure that nothing wrong enters the codebase, So there is no concern over security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is really heavy and slow performing some operations. If you need to iterate over a lot of dates and perform operations with them, you need to think of doing it in a very smart way, so you won't get into performance holes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It helps you display time in any format of your choice and any displays time based on the time zone of the user viewing the application from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to dislike yet in this plug-in as of now Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Helper library which simplifies validation of javascript dates as well as perform operations on the date like adding, subtracting using Moment.js. It also provides methods that can be used to display dates in various formats Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You lose speed when you use moment to parse a large number of dates for instance from a databse Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Moment.js is a utitlity that allows you to wrap javascript dates in moment objects and perform sophisticated operations in a simple way that are way too complex to perform with the inbuilt date object like parsing and validating dates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
nothing to dislike about nodejs other than having to put in time to understand how to use the library Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Date parsing in JavaScript has always been a major difficulty and it is something that I have to deal with often. Moment.js' parsing capabilities is robust and behaves consistently across all major browsers. Also, "time until" and "X minutes ago" labels used to be just a Twitter thing. Nowadays, every timestamp is expected to read like this. Moment.js makes this super simple too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was previously waiting patiently for ES6 support but that was recently released! So no complaints or suggestions! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you, like me, hate having to use the Javascript native object for date formatting and manipulation, but you still need it for your website, you'll be hard pressed to dins a more useful tool than Moment.js. From the moment I discovered it (pun intended) it has been my life saver for avery site where I need to display nicely formatted dates. What I like best is that I can feed it the raw date object from the database, and decide later how I want it displayed for the viewer, so I won't give it a second thought. And the most useful feature is relative time (a moment ago, two days ago etc.), that gives immediate, meaningful information to the reader. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing to dislike about Moment.js; it's a stable library that does easily, and for free (!), something that previously took hours of tedious work, calculations and tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is quite frustrating some times to handles date time on client side for different browsers like Internet Explorer, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Edge etc. They all deal with datetime objects differently. So here comes Moment.js to rescue. Moment.js takes a wide range of date inputs and process it on every platform in a similar fashion so there is no room of error. Here are few points I like about Moment.js
1. Can take wide range of date input format as strings
2. Change date format to multiple formats
3. Date comparison made east with isAfter, isSameOrAfter , isBefore etc.
4. Manage time zones.
5. Manage time and date across multiple cultures and languages.
6. Very lightweight and easy to install via any package manager like npm,bower etc
7. It doesn't require any additional libraries to run.
8. Add subtract time and date made easy.
There are many more things I like and almost all of them are useful in day to day programming. If you are a code a must have in your project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is such a useful library there is nothing much to dislike. Still below are some points I didn't like.
1. Warning in Console: Once I updated my moment.js library to latest version.There after I started getting various depreciation warnings in my console. I had to manually disable those warning messages to keep my console clean.
Overall this is only headache I ever encounter in using the moment.js library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lots of good functions:
-Convert any date-time format to any other date-time format easily
-Convert current system time to any time-zone based time
-Useful to any js based apps including react-native Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
-There is no any disliked feature in this library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
