LocalDateTime is a lightweight wrapper around PHP's own DateTime object, allowing for smooth work with local date, time and date time without worrying about time zones. Each temporal object allows the same ways of comparision, modification and formatting as the underlying DateTime object.

Additionally this library comes with a wrapper around IntlDateFormatter, specifically aimed to format local temporals. For ease of integration, Doctrine types for these temporals are provided as well.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install via composer:

```
$ composer require dasprid/local-date-time
```

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

There are three temporal objects supplied:

- `DASPRiD\LocalDateTime\LocalDate`

A `LocalDate` object can be constructed in multiple ways:
