moment
moment is a JavaScript time manipulation library that lets you display and convert date and time values to and from strings easily. Moment understands a lot of different time formats and can convert between them and can display time values in human friendly ways like today, an hour ago etc.
Examples
Moment has a large feature set, but here are a few examples that demonstrate some of moment's cool formatting features.
Format Dates
moment().format('MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a'); // October 3rd 2015, 4:36:13 pm
moment().format('dddd'); // Saturday
moment().format("MMM Do YY"); // Oct 3rd 15
moment().format('YYYY [escaped] YYYY'); // 2015 escaped 2015
Relative Time
moment("20111031", "YYYYMMDD").fromNow(); // 4 years ago
moment("20120620", "YYYYMMDD").fromNow(); // 3 years ago
moment().startOf('day').fromNow(); // 17 hours ago
moment().endOf('day').fromNow(); // in 7 hours
moment().startOf('hour').fromHow() // 37 minutes ago

<script src="~/bower_components/moment/min/momment.min.js"></script>
