Answer 1

No moment.js needed: Here's a full round trip answer, from an input type of "datetime-local" which outputs an ISOLocal string to UTCseconds at GMT and back:

isoLocal="2020-02-16T19:30"
utcSeconds=new Date(isoLocal).getTime()/1000

//here you have 1581899400 for utcSeconds

let isoLocal=new Date(utcSeconds*1000-new Date().getTimezoneOffset()*60000).toISOString().substring(0,16)
2020-02-16T19:30
