How do I format timestamps in JavaScript?

You can use the toLocaleString() method to format timestamps. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of formatting a date.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const date = new Date();
const formattedDate = date.toLocaleString('en-US', {
    year: 'numeric',
    month: '2-digit',
    day: '2-digit',
    hour: '2-digit',
    minute: '2-digit',
    second: '2-digit'
});
console.log(formattedDate);

This will output the date in a readable format.

What if I want a specific format like 'YYYY-MM-DD'?

For a specific format, you can manually construct the string like this:

const date = new Date();
const formattedDate = `${date.getFullYear()}-${(date.getMonth() + 1).toString().padStart(2, '0')}-${date.getDate().toString().padStart(2, '0')}`;
console.log(formattedDate);
