Boost Timezone Handling in JavaScript Charts

Highcharts is a powerful and versatile JavaScript charting library that empowers developers to create interactive and visually appealing data visualizations for web and mobile applications. Renowned for its extensive chart types, from line and bar charts to heatmaps and gauges, Highcharts boasts advanced customization options, allowing you to tailor layouts, colors, and behaviors to seamlessly integrate with your project's aesthetic and functionality.

The Highcharts v11.3.0 release delivers enhanced datetime support with native handling of the time.timezone option. This streamlined approach leverages the browser's built-in time zone capabilities, ensuring compatibility and accuracy. For browsers that don't recognize a timezone, Highcharts provides a clear warning and defaults to the UTC. By eliminating the dependency on moment.js, Highcharts reduces library weight and improves overall project performance.
