Usage:

let currenTime = Date().currentUTC().convertToString(format: “dd-MM-yyyy”)

let minus5DaysFromNow = Date().currentUTC().add(days: -5).convertToString(format: “dd-MM-yyyy”)

PS: here is the date format, you can grab the format that you need

The extensions are so powerful, they help developers to organise their code write less and clean code. And they’re downright awesome!
