Java does not have a built-in Date class, but we can import the java.time package to work with the date and time API. The package includes many date and time classes. For example:
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
LocalDate |
Represents a date (year, month, day (yyyy-MM-dd)) |
LocalTime |
Represents a time (hour, minute, second and nanoseconds (HH-mm-ss-ns)) |
LocalDateTime |
Represents both a date and a time (yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss-ns) |
DateTimeFormatter |
Formatter for displaying and parsing date-time objects |
