React Native New Date string
<p>I am using react-native-calendar-picker. Initially when my app data loads, if there isn't a date stored that was picked, I assign the specific array with <code>new Date()</code> which returns something like this:  <code>Thu Feb 18 2016 22:58:12 GMT-0700 (MST)</code>. Once the user updates the date I store the new date in React Native's <code>AsyncStorage</code> which has a value something like this: <code>Mon Feb 29 2016 00:00:00 GMT-0700 (MST)</code></p>

<p>However, once the app reloads the date value is returned like this: <code>"2016-02-29T07:00:00.000Z"</code>. The react-native-calendar-picker uses the date formatted like: <code>Mon Feb 29 2016 00:00:00 GMT-0700 (MST)</code></p>

<p>Is there a way to get the date formatted back to this way?</p>
