### 1. **Using Native JavaScript (`Intl.DateTimeFormat`)**
You can use the built-in `Intl.DateTimeFormat` or `toLocaleDateString` for basic date formatting.
#### Example:
<template>
<div>
<p>Formatted Date: {{ formatDate('2024-12-20') }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
methods: {
formatDate(date) {
return new Date(date).toLocaleDateString('en-US', {
year: 'numeric',
month: 'long',
day: 'numeric',
});
},
},
};
</script>
Output:
**December 20, 2024**

### 2. **Using Day.js**
**Day.js** is a lightweight library for date formatting.
#### Install:
npm install dayjs
#### Usage:
<template>
<div>
<p>Formatted Date: {{ formatDate('2024-12-20') }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import dayjs from 'dayjs';
export default {
methods: {
formatDate(date) {
return dayjs(date).format('MMMM D, YYYY'); // e.g., December 20, 2024
},
},
};
</script>

### 3. **Using date-fns**
**date-fns** is another lightweight library for date manipulation.
#### Install:
npm install date-fns
#### Usage:
<template>
<div>
<p>Formatted Date: {{ formatDate('2024-12-20') }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { format } from 'date-fns';
export default {
methods: {
formatDate(date) {
return format(new Date(date), 'MMMM d, yyyy'); // e.g., December 20, 2024
},
},
};
</script>

### 4. **Using Moment.js**
**Moment.js** is a popular library, though it's heavier and not actively recommended for new projects.
#### Install:
npm install moment
#### Usage:
<template>
<div>
<p>Formatted Date: {{ formatDate('2024-12-20') }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import moment from 'moment';
export default {
methods: {
formatDate(date) {
return moment(date).format('MMMM D, YYYY'); // e.g., December 20, 2024
},
},
};
</script>

### 5. **Custom Filters (Optional)**
Vue 3 does not have filters built-in, but you can use computed properties or functions to achieve a similar result.
#### Example with a Computed Property:
<template>
<div>
<p>Formatted Date: {{ formattedDate }}</p>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data() {
return {
rawDate: '2024-12-20',
};
},
computed: {
formattedDate() {
return new Date(this.rawDate).toLocaleDateString('en-US', {
year: 'numeric',
month: 'long',
day: 'numeric',
});
},
},
};
</script>

### Recommendation
For modern applications, **Day.js** or **date-fns** are ideal choices due to their small size and flexibility. Native JavaScript formatting is also sufficient for basic needs.
