Mar 1, 2017 at 17:08 comment added Ouroborus @RobG No one's suggesting that only library solutions should be provided. OP can't specifically ask for a library as that would cause the question to be off-topic. Asking "How do I do it with JavaScript?" could be construed as specifying that this is specific to javascript (asking for a solution in a specific language as opposed to asking for a raw code solution) especially given that this detail is repeated in the title and the tags.
Mar 1, 2017 at 5:36 comment added RobG @Ouroborus—libraries should not be the only solution provided if the OP has not asked for a library in the OP or tags. Otherwise, answers can become just a litany of ways to do something in different libraries and the OP is left no wiser to their actual issue (which in this case is fairly trivial to solve).
Jul 27, 2016 at 18:33 comment added Ouroborus @mattpark22 While I understand what you're getting at, a javascript library is still javascript. I could rip out just the relevant pieces of the library and present those as a code solution. OP would have an answer that was javascript, in the sense that you mean it, but would be unaware of a (possibly) acceptable, general purpose solution. Also, adding 30 minutes is not nearly as trivial as most of the answers make it sound, as there are a lot of edge cases not handled by the Date object. For example, the most popular answer breaks when crossing DST boundaries.
