Hi,
Working on formatting date in a project. For Android and IOS

internal expect fun formatDate(value: Long, format: String): String

is straight forward. For JavaScript in Kotlin/JS is there any equivalent for formatting the date.
kotlin.js.Date
has no formatting capabilities.
kotlinx-datetime also seems to lack formatting capabilities. Am I missing something trivial?

You can check this one docs.korge.org/klock/

Will try this. Any alternatives to importing a whole library?

kotlinx-datetime is actually have some support you can format the instant ie

fun Instant.toDateString(
    timeZone: TimeZone = TimeZone.currentSystemDefault()
) = toLocalDateTime(timeZone).run {
    "${hour.doubleDigits()}:${minute.doubleDigits()} " +
        "${dayOfMonth.doubleDigits()}.${monthNumber.doubleDigits()}.${year.doubleDigits()}"
}

where doubleDigits is

fun Int.doubleDigits() = if (this <= BIGGEST_DIGIT) "0$this" else "$this"
