I'm developing a web App and I have a unix timeStamp.
I need to convert a unix date format to Jalali/Persian/Shamsi Calendar by using jQuery selectors and then convert it by using javascript library.
Something Like below code to convert Unix-Date to Jalali-Date:
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<div class="Unix-Date">1494259627</div> <!-- Unix equal of 1396/2/18 -->
<div class="Jalali-Date"></div>
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="external-library.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var UnixValue;
var JalaliValue;
UnixValue = $(".Unix-Date").html();
JalaliValue = new JalaliExternalFunction(UnixValue);
$(".Jalali-Date").text(JalaliValue);
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
I searched but didn't found any good library. Do you know a reliable and good library for converting (or creating dates in Jalali format from a unix timeStamp). I don't need your implementation or an algorithm, cause this issue is too buggy and has a lot of rules, I need a reliable solution.

I would suggest using moment.js (https://momentjs.com/) which is reliable JavaScript Time library that allows you to format your timestamp in JavaScript. Below is an example of how you can parse a timestamp and format it to whatever you want using it.
//formatting Unix timestamp.
var date = moment.unix(value).format("MM/DD/YYYY");
You also tagged localization which can be done by using;
var localeDate = moment(date).locale("LT");
More examples can be found on there website.
This in conjunction with https://www.npmjs.com/package/jalali-date will get you your jalali date.
There is a moment.js extension for Persian here also https://www.npmjs.com/package/moment-jalaali (From moment to Jalali)
Another Jalali conversion library https://www.npmjs.com/package/jalaali-js (To Jalai)
An example fiddle using moment.js Jalali conversion from Unix Timestamp https://jsfiddle.net/uw82ozpd/9/
Relevant code snippet with comments:
var UnixValue;
var JalaliValue;
$(document).ready(function() {
//get the Unix Date from HTML
var UnixValue = $(".Unix-Date").html();
//Get a moment timestamp in the format simmilar to our next conversion
var date = moment.unix(UnixValue).format("MM/DD/YY");
//Convert from normal moment to our jalali moment exstension using j's as below
var JalaliValue = moment(date).format('jYYYY/jM/jD');
$(".Jalali-Date").text(JalaliValue);
});
you can use toLocalDateString()
let mydate = new Date(timestamp);
let mypersiandate = mydate.toLocaleDateString('fa-IR');
console.log(mypersiandate);
