How to Format a date string in javascript

To format a date string in JavaScript, you can use the Date object to parse the input string into a date object, and then use the toLocaleDateString() method with the appropriate options to format the date object into a new string.

Here’s an example:

const inputDateString = "2023-05-01T00:00:00Z"; // Assuming this is the input date string
const date = new Date(inputDateString);
const options = { year: 'numeric', month: 'long', day: 'numeric' };
const formattedDate = date.toLocaleDateString('en-US', options);
console.log(formattedDate); // "May 1, 2023"

In this example, we’re assuming that inputDateString is the input date string in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ (ISO 8601 format). We’re using the Date object to parse this string into a date object.

We’re then creating an options object that specifies the desired date format, including the year, month, and day components. We’re then calling the toLocaleDateString() method on the date object and passing it the desired locale and options as parameters.

The toLocaleDateString() method returns a new string representing the date object in the specified format. In this example, the output string is "May 1, 2023".
