Javascript Date Methods

Date plays an important role in tracking moments when an event has occurred.

new Date() returns a Date object with current date and time(Ex: Sat Aug 05 2023 13:13:26 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)).

const d = new Date("2023-03-24");//Date is 2023-03-24

const d = new Date();//

Below are the different kinds of date formats that are accepted(Y-Year;M-Month;D-Date)

• ISO (YYYY-MM-DD)

  const d = new Date("2024-06-29")

• Short (MM/DD/YYYY)

  const d=new Date("06/29/2024");
