Javascript - Set date 30 days from now

I need to set a date that would be 30 days from now taking into account months that are 28,29,30,31 days so it doesn't skip any days and shows exactly 30 days from now. How can I do that?

const afterMonth = new Date(new Date().setDate(new Date().getDate()+30)).toISOString()

const Now = new Date().toISOString()

const today = new Date();    
const thirty_days_from_now = new Date(today.getTime() + 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000),

I've been able to make this work:

function() {
// Get local time as ISO string with offset at the end
var now = new Date();
now.setMonth(now.getMonth() + 1);
var pad = function(num) {
    var norm = Math.abs(Math.floor(num));
    return (norm < 10 ? '0' : '') + norm;
};
return now.getFullYear() 
    + '-' + pad(now.getMonth()+1)
    + '-' + pad(now.getDate());
}

Try this piece of code:

const date = new Date();
futureDate = new Date(date.setDate(date.getDate() + 30)).toLocaleDateString();

Using the native Date object with straightforward syntax and no external libraries:

var future = new Date('Jan 1, 2014');

future.setTime(future.getTime() + 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000); // Jan 31, 2014

The Date setTime and getTime functions use milliseconds since Jan 1, 1970 (link).

I wrote a Date wrapper library that helps with parsing, manipulating, and formatting dates.

Here is how you would do it with Moment.js

var inThirtyDays = moment().add('days', 30);

var now = new Date();
var THIRTY_DAYS = 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
var thirtyDaysFromNow = now + THIRTY_DAYS;

The JavaScript "Date()" object has got you covered:

var future = new Date();
future.setDate(future.getDate() + 30);

That'll just do the right thing. (It's a little confusing that the getter/setters for day-of-month have the names they do.)
