A zero dependency package to get the official Belgian holidays.

Install

npm install --save @itenium/date-holidays-be

Use

import { isHoliday, getHolidays } from '@itenium/date-holidays-be';

const holiday: boolean = isHoliday(new Date(2023, 0, 1));
const holidays: Holiday[] = getHolidays(2023);

Typings

type Holiday = {
  date: Date;
  labels: {
    nl: string;
    fr: string;
    de: string;
    en: string;
  }
}

Motivation

If you just need to calculate something very specific, importing date-holidays results in a whopping 10MB dependency.

This turned out to be a performance issue that came up during our "React Component Profiling" technical session at itenium.
