How to use toLocaleDateString() method In Typescript
The toLocaleDateString method allows us to customize the date format by specifying options such as the year, month and day. We mostly use this approach when we want to control individual date components according to the desired format.
Syntax
const date = new Date();
const formattedDate = date.toLocaleDateString()
Example: The below code uses the toLocaleDateString() method to format the date in TypeScript.
const date = new Date();
const options: Intl.DateTimeFormatOptions = {
year: 'numeric',
month: 'long',
day: 'numeric'
};
const formattedDate: string = date.toLocaleDateString(undefined, options);
console.log(formattedDate);
Output:
"February 23, 2024"
