• Try this new Date('Jul-30-2021').toISOString() after that you can use format from Date-fns to convert to any format. – Rajendran Nadar Commented Aug 3, 2021 at 12:37

<script type="module">
  import { format } from 'https://esm.run/date-fns'

  const date = new Date('Jul-30-2021');

  console.log(date);

  console.log(format(date, 'MMM-dd-yyyy, mm:HH:ss'));
</script>

Now you can apply the date-fns format(date, 'MMM-dd-yyyy')

this way :

const setDateMDY = dteSTR => 
  {
  let [m,d,y] = dteSTR.split('-')
  return new Date(`${m} ${d}, ${y} 00:00:00`)
  }

let  date1 = setDateMDY('Jul-30-2021')

console.log( date1.toLocaleString() )
