 - This library is based around epoch time, but dates before Jan 1 1970 are indeed supported, via negative integers.
 - Maya never panics, and always carries a towel.

+☤ What about Delorean, Arrow, & Pendulum?
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Arrow, for example, is a fantastic library, but isn't what I wanted in a datetime library. In many ways, it's better than Maya for certain things. In some ways, in my opinion, it's not.
+
+I simply desire a sane API for datetimes that made sense to me for all the things I'd ever want to do—especially when dealing with timezone algebra. Arrow doesn't do all of the things I need (but it does a lot more!). Maya does do exactly what I need.
+
+I think these projects complement each-other, personally. Maya is great for parsing websites. For example- Arrow supports floors and ceilings and spans of dates, which Maya does not at all.
