Moment.js Parsing parseZone() Function

Moment.js Parsing parseZone() function parses the string provided and keeps the resulting moment in a fixed timezone. Furthermore, this method parses the string but keeps the resulting Moment object in a fixed-offset timezone with the provided offset in the string.

moment.parseZone()
moment.parseZone(String)

Parameters:

• String: The fixed-offset timezone with the provided offset
