Answer 1

You can use new Date() with parameter being universal time variable, Date.prototype.toJSON(), String.prototype.slice(), String.prototype.split() with parameter "-", Array.prototype.reverse(), Array.prototype.join() with parameter "/"

var time = 1475173800000;
    
var date = new Date(time).toJSON().slice(0, 10).split("-").reverse().join("/");

console.log(date);

Answer 2

Try jQuery dateFormat for easy and flexible date formatting. You simply use it like this:

var timestamp = /\/Date\((.*)\)\//;
var myDate = new Date(parseInt(timestamp));
$.format.date(myDate.getTime(), "dd/mm/yyyy"));

Answer 3

One of the easiest things to use for date is datejs (http://www.datejs.com/) You can use the toString method to provide the format in which you want to get the date. There are much more useful components for date manipulation in this library. Do check it out.
