Format JavaScript date to "Month day, Year" format

Question

I want to get following date format (by JavaScript only) - March 3, 2020

var date = new Date();
console.log(date);

Currently I am getting in "2020-05-11T10:08:43.322Z" format. Kindly, help!

You've only created a date, but haven't tried to format it. Why don't you try it first and look in to the [docs at MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date) on what you can use to do it? — Emiel Zuurbier, May 11 '20 at 10:14

You can check Date.prototype.toLocaleString for more information

var date = new Date();
console.log(date.toLocaleString('en-US', {month: 'long', day: 'numeric', year: 'numeric'}));

You can use moment.js

let date = moment().format('MMMM DD, YYYY');
console.log(date)

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.19.1/moment.min.js" integrity="sha256-zG8v+NWiZxmjNi+CvUYnZwKtHzFtdO8cAKUIdB8+U9I=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
