A tiny TypeScript utility for converting human-readable time strings like '2 days' to milliseconds and back. It supports many unit aliases, negative values, and strict type-level parsing.

Use cases

  • convert '2 days' to milliseconds
  • format milliseconds as human-readable duration
  • parse duration strings in config files
  • convert time units in Node.js scripts
  • humanize cache TTL values

When to choose

  • you need a tiny, dependency-free duration parser/formatter
  • you want TypeScript-safe duration string parsing
  • you need it to run in browsers, Node, Deno, Bun, or edge runtimes

When to avoid

  • you need full-featured duration libraries with arithmetic or localization
  • you need durations beyond years or calendar-accurate month/year math
