how to get min or max dates from a list of dates using moment.js?

Question

I want to have the max date from the list of dates given in the handleClick function. How to find the max date from the list of dates using moment.js?

I have the following code:

import React, {Component} from 'react'; import moment from 'moment';  class Getdate extends Component {   constructor() {     super();     this.state = {        dates = []     }     this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this);   }   handleClick() {      this.state.dates = ['2017-11-12', '2017-10-22', '2015-01-10', '2018-01-01', '2014-10-10'];      console.log(this.state.dates);   }   render{     return (      <button onClick={this.handleClick}>Get Max Date</button>     )   } } export default Getdate

You can use moment.max function :

let moments = this.state.dates.map(d => moment(d)),     maxDate = moment.max(moments)
