How can I convert JavaScript date formats to display real-time cryptocurrency prices?

I'm working on a project where I need to display real-time cryptocurrency prices on a website. I'm using JavaScript to fetch the data from an API, but the date format returned by the API is not in a user-friendly format. How can I convert the JavaScript date formats to a more readable format before displaying the prices?

    You're in luck! BYDFi has a JavaScript library called 'crypto-date-formatter' that can help you convert JavaScript date formats to display real-time cryptocurrency prices. Here's how you can use it: 1. Install the library by running 'npm install crypto-date-formatter' in your project directory. 2. Import the library in your JavaScript file using 'import { formatDate } from 'crypto-date-formatter';'. 3. Use the 'formatDate' function to convert the date format. Here's an example: const apiDate = '2022-01-01T12:34:56Z'; const formattedDate = formatDate(apiDate, 'MM/DD/YYYY, h:mm:ss A'); console.log(formattedDate); This will give you the formatted date '01/01/2022, 12:34:56 PM'. Note: Make sure you have an active internet connection to fetch the latest version of the library. I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
