`Temporal` upcoming feature

Can anyone recommend some good resources for learning about the new Temporal API that's in proposal? I've been reading the official docs but I find the examples and explanations a bit lacking and inexhaustive. If there's a YouTube video using one of the polyfills that would be ideal, but I'm yet to find something that goes beyond what the docs show.

does it allow for date formating with string templates (like AAAA-MM-dd ,like in php, python, java, c, sql...) or did they do their thing again? I saw it worked with "pre built formats" but having more control without needing 50lines of code would be nice

datetime.toLocaleString(locales?: string | array<string>, options?: object) : string The locales and options arguments are the same as in the constructor to Intl.DateTimeFormat (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/DateTimeFormat).
- https://tc39.es/proposal-temporal/docs/plaindatetime.html#toLocaleString This is the same for all the date/time objects in Temporal, so you can do it in a single call, but you have to provide the presentation in a config object rather than a string template. Not as bad as Date, but not as good as <insert lang here>
