I have a date object in JavaScript and I want to figure out if that date is today. What is the fastest way of doing this?

My concern was around comparing date object as one might have a different time than another but any time on today's date should return true.

You could use toDateString:

var d = new Date()

var bool = (d.toDateString() === otherDate.toDateString());
