Скачать или смотреть Temporal API Crash Course (JavaScript’s Biggest Upgrade)

JavaScript’s biggest ES2026 feature is Temporal — a modern replacement for the old Date object.

The current Date API has been painful for decades: weak timezone handling, surprising mutation, inconsistent parsing, and runtime differences. Temporal starts fresh with clear, separate types for each date/time concept:

✅ PlainDate — date only (no time, no timezone)
✅ PlainTime — time only (no date, no timezone)
✅ ZonedDateTime — date + time + explicit timezone
✅ Instant — one absolute moment on the global timeline
✅ Duration — a span of time for arithmetic

Best part: everything is immutable and parsing is consistent — basically the API Date should’ve been from the beginning.

If you’ve struggled with dates/timezones in JavaScript, Temporal is the upgrade you’ve been waiting for.
