Formatting text in JS seems easy at first, but as soon as you start to deal with any complex formatting such as numbers, or dates it becomes very difficult. On top of that if you want to translate your application between multiple languages you are looking at even more complexity which is why I love the Intl API. This JS API makes working with formatting and translations so easy and it is one of my favorite JavaScript APIs.
