Dates
Dart brings some much needed sanity to dates and times in the browser. The answer to the question that is burning in many a JavaScript refugee’s heart is “yes”—the first month is, in fact, 1. Let the rejoicing commence.
The niceties of Dart dates do not end there. For instance, there are a number of ways to create dates.
| primitives/dates.dart | |
| | var mar = DateTime.parse('2013-03-01 14:31:12'); |
| | // 2013-03-01 14:31:12.000 |
| | var now = new DateTime.now(); |
| | // 2012-12-31 23:59:59.149 |
| | var apr = new DateTime(2013, 4, 1); |
| | // 2013-04-01 00:00:00.000 |
| | var may = new DateTime(2013, 5, 1, 18, 18, 18); |
| | // 2013-05-01 18:18:18.000 |
Even better, manipulating dates is not only possible but quite nice.
| | var jun = new DateTime(2013, ... |
