JavaScript Date/Time Formatting

Question

I am needing to convert the standard Date(); JS object to the following format: 7/13/2021 8:47:58 PM (M/d/yyyy HH:mm:ss Z)

I'm struggling to get this EXACT format in the simplest way possible. This is what I have so far:

var d = new Date,
    dformat = [d.getMonth()+1,
               d.getDate(),
               d.getFullYear()].join('/')+' '+
              [d.getHours(),
               d.getMinutes(),
               d.getSeconds()].join(':');

console.log(dformat);

I am struggling to get the time zone, which I am conjecturing adds the AM/PM (I could very well be mistaken).

Any help is greatly appreciated!

AM/PM has nothing to do with time zone, just whether the time is before or after noon. — Heretic Monkey, Jul 15 '21 at 18:42

                   d.getFullYear()].join('/')+' '+
                  d.toLocaleTimeString('en-US')

Thank you so much! – audreywrong Jul 15 '21 at 18:54
Because `new Date().toLocaleString('en-US').replace(',', '')` is not enough code? ;-) – RobG Jul 15 '21 at 20:25

Try this:

var d = new Date();
console.log(d.toLocaleString());
