Laravel Carbon - Get simple date format like June 14th, 2020 from 2020-06-14

Hi everyone,

I have a date format (like 2020-06-14) and I want to show June 14th, 2020. How can I easily do that with Laravel Carbon?

Thanks!

And how can I implement that in blade?

Unfortunately, this doesn't work:

{{ Carbon::parse($date)->format('F jS, Y') }}

For today

{{ now()->format('F jS, Y') }}

If is your $date a carbon instance then

{{ $date->format('F jS, Y') }}

What do you have in your $date variable?

Hi @michaloravec,

Thanks for your answer!

I used this code to get it working:

{{ Carbon\Carbon::parse($date)->format('F jS, Y') }}
