Get current date in DD-Mon-YYY format in JavaScript/Jquery

Question

I need to get the date format as \'DD-Mon-YYYY\' in javascript. I had asked a question, and it got marked duplicate to jQuery date formatting

But, the answers provi

Answer 1

Here's a simple solution, using TypeScript:

  convertDateStringToDate(dateStr) {
    //  Convert a string like '2020-10-04T00:00:00' into '4/Oct/2020'
    let months = ['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];
    let date = new Date(dateStr);
    let str = date.getDate()
                + '/' + months[date.getMonth()]
                + '/' + date.getFullYear()
    return str;
  }

(Yeah, I know the question was about JavaScript, but I'm sure I won't be the only Angular developer coming across this article !)
