I have a problem with converting date time which comes from datepicker to moment (I use this library) time format.
What I get from datepicker: 2021-01-30T07:00:00.000Z
The code that I used via moment:
let tempTime = moment(dateString).toDate()
Output I get with this implementation: Fri Apr 30 2021 00:00:00 GMT-0700 (Mountain Standard Time)
What I expected: Fri Apr 30 2021 07:00:00 GMT-0700 (Mountain Standard Time)
The difference is between hours. In my implementation they just being ignored.
How can I overcome this issue?
Thanks for your attention!

The problem with conversion is the date string is in an UTC format. Either you remove the Z at the end or you can provide custom format and escape the UTC identifer like below.
const dateString = "2021-01-30T07:00:00.000Z"; let tempTime = moment(dateString, "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss[Z]").toDate(); console.log(tempTime);
