How to format DateTime in Flutter

Question

I am trying to display the current DateTime in a Text widget after tapping on a button. The following works, but I\'d like to change the format.

Answer 1

You can use DateFormat from intl package.

import 'package:intl/intl.dart';

DateTime now = DateTime.now();
String formattedDate = DateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd – kk:mm').format(now);
