When I select a date I see the correct date in the field but, when I save, the datepicker send the day before the date I have selected ( 3 hours offset ) i am using angular

Answer 1

The solution stackblitz works great, but if you are not storing the timestamp in Database, then you need to convert back the date to UTC format while retrieving it from database before assigning to the datepicker.

let dbDate = new Date('2018-02-09T00:00:00.000Z');

let updateDate = new Date(
      Date.UTC(dbDate.getFullYear(), dbDate.getMonth(), dbDate.getDate())
    ).toISOString(); // 2018-02-08T00:00:00.000Z

now assign the updatedDate to the datepicker, hope this helps.
