Answer 1

I wrote a package for this. It's called Instant, and it can convert a DateTime in any given timezone worldwide. Take a detailed look at https://aditya-kishore.gitbook.io/instant/

The basic usage for converting a DateTime to a timezone is very simple:

//Assumes Instant is in your pubspec
import 'package:instant/instant.dart';

//Super Simple!
DateTime myDT = DateTime.now(); //Current DateTime
DateTime EastCoast = dateTimeToZone(zone: "EST", datetime: myDT); //DateTime in EST zone
return EastCoast;

This works with one line of code and minimal hassle.
