1. padStart and padEnd

If you have to show numbers in some standard or minimum digit count, you can use padStart or padEnd.

E.g If you’ve to show days in 2 digit count like 09 Days. So this was the old technique we use to solve this case.

1. Getting Current UTCTime String:

2. Converting device local time to UTC time string:

If the date is a string, and in the format "2021–10–22" (yyyy-MM-dd), convert it to a standard time string. For example, to "2020–10–21T19:00:00.000Z"
Then use the following method to convert this standard date string to UTC date-time string:

3. Converting UTC date-time string to device’s local time:

Make sure your UTC date-time string is in the standard format, for example "2021–10–22T05:00:00.000Z"
Then use the following method to convert this date string into the device’s local date:

Summary:

Sometimes the Date object is hard to work with. For example, some libraries do not work as expected. Thus, using these functions will be a lifesaver. They definitely helped me with a recent project. And I thought about sharing my experience with you.
