Sometimes, we want to convert milliseconds into a readable date with JavaScript.
In this article, we’ll look at how to convert milliseconds into a readable date with JavaScript.
Convert Milliseconds into a Readable Date with JavaScript
To convert milliseconds into a readable date with JavaScript, we can call the toLocaleString
string method on the date.
For instance, we write:
const date = new Date(1324339200000);
const d = date.toLocaleString();
console.log(d)
We create a Date
instance with the millisecond timestamp.
Then we call toLocaleString
on the returned date object to return a string with the human readable version of the date-time assign it to d
.
Therefore, d
is '12/19/2011, 4:00:00 PM'
.
Conclusion
To convert milliseconds into a readable date with JavaScript, we can call the toLocaleString
string method on the date.
