There are loads of questions about the current date in JavaScript in general, but in my scenario, I have to pass in something to the date object, because usually there is a valid date I'm looking for. However, my question is - assuming the argument is undefined, what should I pass to mimic new Date()?
As an example, my code will do something like this.
const date = '2019-11-26T19:10:12.000Z'
const diff = new Date(date).getTime() - new Date().getTime()
While my components are rendering, I need to give date an initial value (while it loads from the server). During this initial loading time, I expect the diff to equal 0.
I have tried the following
new Date(undefined) >> Invalid Date
new Date('') >> Invalid Date
new Date(null) >> Thu Jan 01 1970
new Date(0) >> Thu Jan 01 1970
I'm trying to solve it in a simple way, by passing in whatever value would match no argument for Date. It seems weird, but if it's the case, I'll just assume it's JavaScript date objects being weird.
