I appreciate libraries for:
- ubiquitous things, like data structures
- hard to get right things, like time
- implementations of specs, like Unicode
- hardware interfaces, like CUDA
For everything else, I'll take the above and roll my own solution.

There are a few basic data structures in JS, but almost everything else is in user-land.

Date is a notoriously bad API in JavaScript.

We just get a String type in JavaScript which is UTF-16, so...
Well, no, we aren't. We are talking about the Elm language, which compiles to JavaScript.
There are also other excellent languages that target JavaScript that have these things.
