Would it be worth naming this 'Period' rather than 'Range'? I'm aware that Moment plugin was called 'range', but usually in programming languages, 'range' is used to generate a sequence of things, whereas this feature is about creating a date 'period'.

The Moment plugin covers the term 'range' by also being iterable, which this could implement.

I raise this, as #1162 asked for the ability to generate date ranges, and I've got a plugin in the works that would be called via dayjs.range(start, end, unit, options), so I wouldn't want to end up with a naming clash.

I've awaited #1580, and I can't wait no more.
So I've decided to implement the range function by myself.

range function module name is dayjs-range-extend, this Module make below things possible.

• Support date range
• Validation date range
• Support TypeScript
• Other functions..

i've mentioned, i couldn't wait anymore range function. However, want use range function from Day.js.
Unless there is a separate plan for the date range function, dayjs-range-extend is would be left.

@iamkun still no plans to merge this? :')

[nofacez]

Looking forward for this feature, so needed!

[eelior]

Is this project still maintained @iamkun ?
Would love to see this PR merged 🙏

[oldschoolbg]

In the absence of this being merged I'm going to have to use @imwh0im plugin... I also second this as being really important to merge if at all possible - it's a really useful tool to have as I am just migrating away from Moment (finally) :)
