How to get current date and time printed using reactJS

I am trying to create a small program where I have to display date and time using react JS. It is displaying everything as expected except date and time value in the HTML page.

enter code here
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";

const name = "Flash";
const currDate = new Date().toLocaleDateString;
const currTime = new Date().toLocaleTimeString;

ReactDOM.render(
<>
<h1>My name is {name}</h1>
<p> Current Date is = {currDate} </p>
<p> Curremt Time is = {currTime} </p> 
</>,
document.getElementById("root"));
Solution

  • Everything is perfect in your code, but you just forgot to run these functions.

    toLocaleDateString and toLocaleTimeString are functions not just objects so you need to add parenthesis to run these functions and get the results.

    so replace this:

    const currDate = new Date().toLocaleDateString;
const currTime = new Date().toLocaleTimeString;

    with this:-

    const currDate = new Date().toLocaleDateString();
const currTime = new Date().toLocaleTimeString();

    So your final code becomes this:-

    import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";

const name = "Flash";
const currDate = new Date().toLocaleDateString();
const currTime = new Date().toLocaleTimeString();

ReactDOM.render(
<>
<h1>My name is {name}</h1>
<p> Current Date is = {currDate} </p>
<p> Curremt Time is = {currTime} </p> 
</>,
document.getElementById("root"));
