Description

The Temporal API reached TC39 Stage 4 in March 2026 and is now part of ES2026. It's shipping natively in Firefox 139+, Chrome 144+, and Edge 144+, with Node.js 26+ enabling it unflagged, and TypeScript 6.0 ships built-in types under esnext.temporal. Safari currently only has partial support in Technology Preview, so it's clearly not yet a baseline that Angular could require but the trajectory suggests full cross-browser support isn't far off.

This isn't a request to ship full Temporal support in DatePipe today. It's a proposal to start thinking about the design now, so that when Safari catches up, Angular is ready to fully support it.

I'm happy to help with the design discussion and, if the proposal is accepted and the timing is appropriate, I'd also be interested in working on an implementation.

Proposed solution

Open a discussion on how DatePipe would extend to accept Temporal.PlainDate, Temporal.PlainDateTime, Temporal.ZonedDateTime, and Temporal.Instant inputs.

Alternatives considered

• Wait until Safari ships full support before discussing anything.
• A separate TemporalPipe or TemporalDatePipe.
• Leaving DatePipe as it is.
