JavaScript function to add X months to a date

Question

I’m looking for the easiest, cleanest way to add X months to a JavaScript date.

I’d rather not handle the rolling over of the year or have to write my own function.<

Answer 1

I'm using moment.js library for date-time manipulations. Sample code to add one month:

var startDate = new Date(...);
var endDateMoment = moment(startDate); // moment(...) can also be used to parse dates in string format
endDateMoment.add(1, 'months');
