1. Date Formatting

Format dates into strings with local digit support:

print(now.toFormattedDate(lang: 'en')); // Output: 10/3/2026
print(now.toFormattedDate(lang: 'bn')); // Output: ১০/৩/২০২৬
print(now.toFormattedDate(lang: 'ar')); // Output: ١٠/٣/٢٠٢٦

2. Time Ago

Calculate relative time effortlessly:

DateTime pastDate = DateTime.now().subtract(const Duration(hours: 2));

print(pastDate.toTimeAgo(lang: 'en')); // Output: 2h ago
print(pastDate.toTimeAgo(lang: 'bn')); // Output: ২ ঘণ্টা আগে
print(pastDate.toTimeAgo(lang: 'ar')); // Output: ٢ ساعة مضت
