You can use the getTimezoneOffset() method to return the time difference between UTC time and your local time, in minutes.

Below an example on how to return the timezone difference between UTC and Local Time:

var d = new Date()
var n = d.getTimezoneOffset();
console.log(n);

The answer to this question is a bit long and requires other libraries to function properly. Have a look at this website: https://css-tricks.com/localizing-times-in-javascript/

Hope it helps! :)
