Use moment or its analogues, which are not few on the market. The moment is one of the most convenient.

Answer 2

First you need to calculate the difference between that date and the current time. The easiest way is to convert both dates into something like "number of milliseconds since Unix epoch" Then we have to decide which interval we round to minutes, which to hours, etc. Well, round it up.
