Date Manipulation with Temporal API in JavaScript

Problem: I needed to work with precise date and time manipulation, and the existing JavaScript Date object wasn’t flexible enough for some operations, like adding complex durations

Solution: I used the Temporal API, which provides a more reliable and intuitive way to handle date and time operations, such as adding durations to specific dates.

const today = Temporal.PlainDate.from({ year: 2023, month: 11, day: 19 });
console.log(today.toString()); // Output: 2023-11-19

const duration = Temporal.Duration.from({ hours: 3, minutes: 30 });
const tomorrow = today.add(duration); // Adding duration to the date
console.log(tomorrow.toString()); // Output: 2023-11-20
