By many metrics the new Temporal date-time API is the single biggest change to JS ever 🔥 Temporal is now shipping in Firefox, Chrome, & soon in Safari. TS 6.0 contains type declaration support. It's in Deno, close to landing in Node, & supported by the Boa & Kiesel engines.
ECMAScript EXTRA-SPECIAL excitement 😉 🚨🚨🚨 IT'S ABOUT TIME! 🚨🚨🚨 Congrats to @ptomato.name on advancing Temporal to Stage 4 at @tc39.es today 🎉 Temporal is the replacement for the JavaScript Date API 👍
Jason Williams@jason-williams.co.uk · 5mo agoTemporal is now Stage 4 at TC39 🎂🎂🎂 Thanks to all the other champions of JavaScript's new date-time API. It has been a wild ride over many years! I wrote a blog post explaining how we got here 📜 bloomberg.github.io/js-blog/post...
![Code example showing the usage of Temporal.ZoneddateTime
```js
// London DST starts: 2026-03-29 01:00 -> 02:00
const zdt = Temporal.ZonedDateTime.from(
"2026-03-29T00:30:00+00:00[Europe/London]",
);
console.log(zdt.toString());
// → "2026-03-29T00:30:00+00:00[Europe/London]"
const plus1h = zdt.add({ hours: 1 });
console.log(plus1h.toString());
// "2026-03-29T02:30:00+01:00[Europe/London]" (01:30 doesn't exist)

For all the daylight saving time hubbub in the news, I'll remind all that the most important thing is adequate notice of changes. If they're going to make DST permanent, pass the law NOW.
