Are there any up-to-date library for date and time in Deno?

Currently I working on personal project which needs an date and time library. I think about moment and date-fns firstly. After that I search for them and found out that they aren't updated at least three years. I just wonder about theirs security and trustfulness. Should I install one of them from npm because Deno is compatible with npm packages? Thanks

Date and time libraries seem to be somewhat inactive since JS standard Temporal API is just around the corner, and will have/has most features you'd ever need built in. And in fact usable in Deno with - - unstable-temporal. Meanwhile, there is simple but useful and up to date https://jsr.io/@std/datetime , and like you mention could bring stuff from npm. Temporal is pretty nice though, if you are ok with using unstable stuff
