Working with dates in javascript sucks.

Luckily if you have KendoUI in your project you can leverage it to do all the heavy lifting for you.

It's JUST THIS EASY!

kendodateparse.jsView on GitHub
var parsedDate = kendo.parseDate(myDate, 'yyyy/MM/dd');
var formattedString = kendo.toString(parsedDate, 'dddd MMMM dd, yyyy h:mmtt');

I mean since this was posted moment.js is WAY easier, but if kendo is there anyway, why add the extra library.
