moment.js will probably not get such an optimization. They're officially in maintenance mode, and recommend using alternatives in new projects (momentjs.com/docs/#/-project-status/)

The problem is that the dependencies you use probably still use moment, so you get it installed in addition to day.js - and that's a lot "in addition of" :)

Day.js is the best candidate for my offer here, as it is the most similar to moment already :) Creating an API that exposes similar day.js methods but provides a moment-like mutable object would allow these dependencies to use day.js as well, so moment will not be bundled in your project at all.
