If I have a date object in JS, how can I get a string in the form "Monday, January 12, 2022"? (I do not want abbreviations like "Mon" or "Jan").

You can use date_object.toLocaleDateString('en-us', { year:"numeric", month:"long", day:"numeric", weekday:"long"}).

As I write this, new Date().toLocaleDateString('en-us', { year:"numeric", month:"long", day:"numeric", weekday:"long"}) gives the result "Wednesday, June 1, 2022".

try this :

let date = new Date();
let day = date.toLocaleString('en-us', { weekday: 'long' });
let month = date.toLocaleString('en-us', { month: 'long' });

console.log(month);
console.log(day);
