The moment-timezone package is an extension for the moment.js library that allows users to parse and display dates in any timezone. It provides timezone data and functions to work with dates in different time zones.

What are moment-timezone's main functionalities?

Parsing Dates in Timezones

This feature allows you to create a moment object with a specified timezone. The code sample creates a moment object for the time and date '2013-11-18 11:55' in the 'America/Toronto' timezone.

moment.tz('2013-11-18 11:55', 'America/Toronto')

Converting Dates to Different Timezones

This feature enables you to convert the current time to a different timezone. The code sample converts the current time to the 'America/New_York' timezone and formats it as a string.

moment().tz('America/New_York').format()

Retrieving Timezone Names

This feature provides a list of all the timezone names available in the moment-timezone library. The code sample retrieves an array of timezone names.

moment.tz.names()

Working with UTC Offsets

This feature allows you to work with UTC offsets directly. The code sample parses a date with a specific UTC offset and retrieves that offset in minutes.

moment.parseZone('2013-01-01T00:00:00-13:00').utcOffset()
