momentJS convert possibility day into Date() js format

I am trying to convert a date in format momentjs into a date from javascript native new Date().
The problem is that if I have moment(myDay).toDate(); it converts to the current date, and I want the date from myDay.
myDay looks like: "YYYY-MM-DD" => 2017-11-24 and I would like to have it with the format: Fri Nov 24 2017 20:17:11 GMT+0100 (Hora estándar romance) but I get Thu Nov 16 2017 etc...
It is possible to convert it like that way?

Don't need moment:
let [yr, mn, day] = myDay.split('-').map(Number);
// note that JS months are 0-11 not 1-12
let datestr = new Date(yr, mn - 1, dy).toString();
console.log(datestr); // "Fri Nov 24 2017 00:00:00 GMT-0500 (EST)"

you want something like this:
moment(myDay, "YYYY-MM-DD").toString();
moment().toString() Returns an english string in a similar format to JS Date's .toString().
moment().toString() // "Sat Apr 30 2016 16:59:46 GMT-0500"

JavaScript: Comparing two dates no output

I would like to compare the given date in the below format in JaveScript. I have tried the following,
Thu May 19 2016 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
Thu May 20 2016 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
var ExpiryDate = userAccount.ExpiryDate();
var datetoday = new Date();
var Expired = (DateTime.Compare(ExpiryDate, datetoday) == -1 ) ? true : false;
//if expiry date is less than today date then var expired should be true
But didn't worked. I could not compare those two dates. It results in un handled exception. Is there any other way to do this date comparison in JaveScript ?
I have referred the following answers in SO but they are in different date format. So that I have raised this question,
javascript compare two dates and throw an alert
Javascript comparing two dates has wrong result
Compare two dates in JavaScript
Javascript compare two dates to get a difference
Any suggestion would be helpful.

var date = new Date();
//# => Fri May 20 2016 16:09:43 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
var date2 = new Date();
date2.setDate(date.getDate() - 1);
//# => Thu May 19 2016 16:09:43 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
date > date2 //# => true

use getTime()
var date1 = (new Date("20 May 2016")).getTime();
var date2 = (new Date("19 May 2016")).getTime();
date1>date2

Get timestamp with given date vs today date doesn't same result

Today is 18 Oct. 2013
var tmp = new Date('2013-10-18');
tmp = tmp.getTime();
1382054400000 (GMT: Fri, 18 Oct 2013 00:00:00 GMT)
var today = new Date();
today = today.setHours(0,0,0,0);
1382047200000 (GMT: Thu, 17 Oct 2013 22:00:00 GMT)
.setHours(0,0,0,0) Doesn't for set date to the midnight (00:00:00) ?

Date.setHours will set time to '00:00:00:00' in your current timezome.
Sets the hours for a specified date according to local time, and returns the number of milliseconds since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC until the time represented by the updated Date instance.
If you want to work in UTC hours, use Date.setUTCHours instead.

Get exact day from date string in Javascript

I have checked this SO post: Where can I find documentation on formatting a date in JavaScript?
Also I have looked into http://home.clara.net/shotover/datetest.htm
My string is: Mon Jun 24 2013 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
And I want to convert it to dd-mm-yyyy format.
I tried using:
var dateString = 'Mon Jun 24 2013 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)';
var myDate = new Date(dateString);
var final_date = myDate.getDay()+"-"+(myDate.getMonth()+1)+"-"+myDate.getFullYear();
But it gives me the result as: 1-6-2013
The getDay() value is the index of day in a week.
For Instance,
If my dateString is Thu Jun 20 2013 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
it gives output as 4-6-2013
How can I get the proper value of Day?
P.S: I tried using .toLocaleString() and creating new date object from it. But it gives the same result.

To get the day of the month use getDate():
var final_date = myDate.getDate()+"-"+(myDate.getMonth()+1)+"-"+myDate.getFullYear();

W3 schools suggests just building your days of the week array and using it:
var d=new Date();
var weekday=new Array(7);
weekday[0]="Sunday";
weekday[1]="Monday";
weekday[2]="Tuesday";
weekday[3]="Wednesday";
weekday[4]="Thursday";
weekday[5]="Friday";
weekday[6]="Saturday";
var n = weekday[d.getDay()];
Not super elegant, but usable.

var dateString = 'Mon Jun 24 2013 05:30:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)';
var myDate = new Date(dateString);
var final_date = myDate.getDate()+"-"+(myDate.getMonth()+1)+"-"+myDate.getFullYear();
Replace getDay() with getDate().
The above will return the local date for each date part, use the UTC variants if you need the universal time.

I think you will have to take an Array of the days & utilize it using the received index from the getDay() method.

To get required format with given date will achieve with moment.js.
a one liner solution is
import moment from "moment";
const date = new Date();
const finalDate = moment(date).format("DD-MM-YYYY")

Javascript UTC timestamp to Local Timezone

I'm trying to convert a timestamp being returned from a JSON resource in javascript that is displaying in UTC to the users local timezone. Below i'm trying to adjust with the user offset.
Example UTC output for date:
Tue Mar 27 2012 02:29:15 GMT-0400 (EDT)
Code
var date = new Date(data.date_created); //Data.date_created coming from json payload
var offset = date.getTimezoneOffset() //Get offset
var new_date = new Date(date offset); //Add offset to userdate
I'm struggling with the appropriate method to achieve this. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I might be missing something but
var date = new Date( data.date_created );
does what I think you want.
>>> d=new Date('Tue Mar 27 2012 02:29:15 GMT-0800')
Date {Tue Mar 27 2012 06:29:15 GMT-0400 (EDT)}
>>> d.toLocaleString()
"Tue Mar 27 06:29:15 2012"
>>> d=new Date('Tue Mar 27 2012 02:29:15 GMT+0300')
Date {Mon Mar 26 2012 19:29:15 GMT-0400 (EDT)}
>>> d.toLocaleString()
"Mon Mar 26 19:29:15 2012"
Note how changing the GMT offset from -8 to +3 changes the resulting time by 11 hours.
