In this article I am describing the date object's "toDateString" method in the TypeScript.
Introduction
The Date object is the key to date and time functionality in TypeScript. If we create it with no argument passed to its constructor, it will contain the current date and time of the user's computer. The Date object also provides a number of functions dealing with something called Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time, also known (in the Winter) as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

toDateString() Method
In TypeScript, the toDateString() method converts the date of a Date object into a readable string, but it does not convert the time.
Syntax

Date.toDateString()

Function
convertdate()
{
var date = new Date();
var span = document.createElement("span");
span.innerText = "Current Time is -> " + date + "\n";
document.body.appendChild(span);
var span = document.createElement("span");
span.style.color = "#00CC99";
span.innerText = "After change Date -> " + date.toDateString() + "\n";
document.body.appendChild(span);
}

convertdate()
{
var date = new Date();
var span = document.createElement("span");
span.innerText = "Current Time is -> " + date + "\n";
document.body.appendChild(span);
var span = document.createElement("span");
span.style.color = "#00CC99";
span.innerText = "After change Date -> " + date.toDateString() + "\n";
document.body.appendChild(span);
}
}
window.onload = () =>
{
var obj = new ConvertDate();
var bttn = <HTMLButtonElement>(document.getElementById("Button1"));
bttn.onclick = function () {
obj.convertdate();
}
};
