+and objects with an `epochMilliseconds` property (e.g. `Temporal.Instant`,
+`Temporal.ZonedDateTime`).
+Returns `null` for `null`, `undefined`, empty strings, `0`, and any value that
+produces an invalid `Date`.
+
+This is the date equivalent of ensureArray — it normalizes flexible
+input into a guaranteed type (or a safe fallback).
+
+```typescript
+import { ensureDate } from '@helpers4/date';
+
+ensureDate(input: DateLike | null | undefined): Date | null
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `input: DateLike | null | undefined` — A date-like value to convert
+
+**Returns:** `Date | null` — A valid `Date` object, or `null` if the input is invalid
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*ensureDate*
+
+```typescript
+```ts
+ensureDate('2025-01-19T12:00:00Z') // => Date
+ensureDate(1737290400)             // => Date (from Unix seconds)
+ensureDate(1737290400000)          // => Date (from milliseconds)
+ensureDate(new Date())             // => Date (same reference)
+ensureDate(null)                   // => null
+ensureDate('invalid')              // => null
+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `EpochMilliseconds`
+
+An object that exposes an epoch timestamp in milliseconds.
+
+This structural type is satisfied by `Temporal.Instant` and
+`Temporal.ZonedDateTime` (and any future object that carries the same
+property), so callers can pass Temporal values without importing them.
+
+---
+
+### `formatDuration`
+
+Formats a duration in milliseconds as a compact human-readable string.
+
+Produces output like `"1h 23m 45s"`. Zero-valued leading units are
+omitted (e.g. `"23m 45s"` instead of `"0h 23m 45s"`), but trailing
+zeros are kept up to the minimum unit (`"1h 0m 0s"` when `minUnit`
+is `'seconds'`).
+
+Negative durations are prefixed with `"-"`.
+A zero duration returns `"0s"` (or `"0m"` / `"0h"` depending on `minUnit`).
+
+```typescript
+import { formatDuration } from '@helpers4/date';
+
+formatDuration(ms: number, options: FormatDurationOptions): string
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `ms: number` — Duration in milliseconds
+- `options: FormatDurationOptions` (default: `{}`) — Optional configuration
+
+**Returns:** `string` — A compact duration string
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*formatDuration*
+
+```typescript
+```ts
+formatDuration(5025000)           // => "1h 23m 45s"
+formatDuration(45000)             // => "45s"
+formatDuration(3600000)           // => "1h 0m 0s"
+formatDuration(5025000, { minUnit: 'minutes' }) // => "1h 23m"
+formatDuration(5025000, { padded: true })       // => "01h 23m 45s"
+formatDuration(-5025000)          // => "-1h 23m 45s"
+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `FormatDurationOptions`
+
+Options for formatDuration.
+
+---
+
+### `formatInTimezone`

 ```
 
 **Parameters:**
 
-- `timestamp: number` — The timestamp (in seconds or milliseconds)

+
+**Returns:** `string | null` — A formatted date string, or `null`
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*formatInTimezone*
+
+```typescript
+```ts
+formatInTimezone('2025-01-19T12:00:00Z', 'Asia/Tokyo')
+// => "1/19/2025, 9:00:00 PM" (en-US default)
+
+formatInTimezone('2025-01-19T12:00:00Z', 'Europe/Paris', {
+  locale: 'fr-FR',
+  formatOptions: { dateStyle: 'long', timeStyle: 'short' },
+})
+// => "19 janvier 2025, 13:00"
+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `FormatInTimezoneOptions`
+
+Options for formatInTimezone.
+
+---
+
+### `fromMillis`
+
+Creates a `Date` from a timestamp in **milliseconds**.
+
+Use this when receiving a timestamp from a JS-native source
+(e.g. `Date.now()`, `performance.timeOrigin`). No heuristic — the
+input is always treated as milliseconds.
+
+```typescript
+import { fromMillis } from '@helpers4/date';
+
+fromMillis(ms: number): Date | null
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `ms: number` — Milliseconds since the Unix epoch
+
+**Returns:** `Date | null` — A valid `Date`, or `null` for `NaN` / non-finite input
+

+fromMillis(0)             // => Date('1970-01-01T00:00:00Z')
+fromMillis(NaN)           // => null
+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `fromSeconds`
+
+Creates a `Date` from a timestamp in **seconds**.
+
+Use this when receiving a timestamp from a backend that sends seconds
+(e.g. Java `Instant.getEpochSecond()`). No heuristic — the input is
+always treated as seconds.
+
+```typescript
+import { fromSeconds } from '@helpers4/date';
+
+fromSeconds(seconds: number): Date | null
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `seconds: number` — Seconds since the Unix epoch
+
+**Returns:** `Date | null` — A valid `Date`, or `null` for `NaN` / non-finite input
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*fromSeconds*

+```ts
+fromSeconds(1737288000)  // => Date('2025-01-19T12:00:00Z')
+fromSeconds(0)           // => Date('1970-01-01T00:00:00Z')

+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `getTimezoneOffset`
+
+Returns the UTC offset **in minutes** for the given IANA timezone

+
+A positive value means the timezone is **ahead** of UTC (e.g. `+60` for CET).
+Returns `null` if the timezone is invalid or the date cannot be parsed.
+
+The implementation uses `Intl.DateTimeFormat` to extract the local
+representation in the target timezone, then computes the delta from UTC.
+
+```typescript
+import { getTimezoneOffset } from '@helpers4/date';
+
+getTimezoneOffset(tz: string, date: DateLike): number | null
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `tz: string` — IANA timezone identifier (e.g. `'America/New_York'`)
+- `date: DateLike` (default: `...`) — Reference date (defaults to now)
+
+**Returns:** `number | null` — Offset in minutes, or `null` if inputs are invalid
+
+**Examples:**
+
+*getTimezoneOffset*
+
+```typescript
+```ts
+getTimezoneOffset('America/New_York', '2025-01-19T12:00:00Z') // => -300 (EST)
+getTimezoneOffset('Europe/Paris', '2025-07-19T12:00:00Z')     // => 120  (CEST)
+```
+```
+
+---
+
+### `isBusinessDay`
+
+Checks whether a date falls on a business day (i.e. **not** a weekend day).
+
+This is the logical inverse of isWeekend. By default, business days
+are Monday through Friday. Pass a custom `weekendDays` to adapt to other

+> country- and region-specific. Use it in combination with your own holiday
+> list if needed.
