To compute the difference between two dates in Javascript, we will first use moment js :
var date1 = moment(‘1/13/2020’);
var date2 = moment(’12/13/2020′);
console.log(date2.diff(date1, ‘days’), ‘Difference in days ‘);
The method diff allows you to find the difference in any unit and the syntax is
moment.diff(moment, ‘interval’);

To calculate the date difference in Javascript, in hours, we use:
var date1 = moment(‘1/13/2020’);
var date2 = moment(’12/13/2020′);
console.log(date2.diff(date1, ‘hours’), ‘Difference in hours’);
Using standard functions, we can subtract dates in javascript as follows:
const date1 = new Date(‘1/13/2020’);
const date2 = new Date(’12/13/2020′);
const diff_Time = Math.abs(date2 – date1);
const diff_Days = Math.ceil(diff_Time / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
console.log(diff_Time + ” milliseconds”);
console.log(diff_Days + ” days”);
