Time in Known Location with Known Offset and NO Daylight Saving Time-CodePudding

With the hundreds of posts concerning Javascript time questions, I'm certain this has been addressed but I've been through a couple of dozen posts so far and none answer my specific question. I know the offset (-7) and in this particular State in the USA (Arizona) there is NO DST. I just want to display the time in Arizona to any user. All the posts I've reviewed seem to imply that I need to use

return new Date().getTimezoneOffset();

from the local computer as part of my calculations but I'm not sure why that would be necessary? Would this be a viable solution?

const now = new Date();
        return {
            hour: (now.getUTCHours() -7)
            minute: now.getMinutes(),
        };

CodePudding user response：

You do not need to getTimezoneOffset, but you will need to handle the case when the hours are smaller than 7:

const now = new Date();
        console.log( {
            hour: ((now.getUTCHours() -7) % 24),
            minute: now.getMinutes(),
        });
