Compare with Moment #6

Closed CMCDragonkai closed 7 years ago

Momentjs already has https://momentjs.com/timezone/docs/#/using-timezones/guessing-user-timezone/

Is there any difference?

Good point. Thanks for bringing this up. I actually didn't know moment-tz had that functionality. I started this fork a while back, and the original lib is even older. Maybe moment tz didn't always support guess()?

One potential benefit of this library is that it's a standalone dependency, and does not require moment in order to work properly.

Either way, if moment suites your needs then by all means use it. This repo doesn't take much active maintenance so I see no reason not to have both.

I'd be happy to point people to moment-tz as well in the readme. If you want to PR that I will accept it.
