Hi Friends 👋,

Welcome To Infinitbility! ❤️

To get am and pm in moment js, just use the moment().format() method by passing desire format string parameters with a at the end.

Just import moment in your file and invoke moment().format('hh:mm:ss a'); it will show the current time with am and pm.

Copy 
1moment().format('hh:mm:ss a')

5    <div>
6        {/* example of date time format with am and pm `DD-MM-YYYY h:mm:ss a` */}
7        {console.log(moment().format("DD-MM-YYYY h:mm:ss a"))}
8        {console.log("----")}
9        {/* example of time format with am and pm `h:mm:ss a` */}
10        {console.log(moment().format("h:mm:ss a"))}
11    </div>
