Answer 1

You can create a duration for '05:30' using moment.duration(String) and the use add(Duration).

As moment duration docs states, '05:30' is a valid input for moment.duration(String):

As of 2.1.0, moment supports parsing ASP.NET style time spans. The following formats are supported.

The format is an hour, minute, second string separated by colons like 23:59:59. The number of days can be prefixed with a dot separator like so 7.23:59:59. Partial seconds are supported as well 23:59:59.999.

Here a live sample:

const result = moment().add( moment.duration('05:30') );
console.log( moment().format() );
console.log( result.format() );
