(UI) Render DateTime of Event on the Client Side in the User's Timezone

[sabine]

In the events directory, we record the date/times of events in UTC. However, in the templates, we would like to display these in the viewer's timezone.

A straightforward way to do this is to use the JavaScript Date object to parse and render the time like this:

Modify the template community.eml such that, when JavaScript is available, the date/time is rendered in the user's timezone.

Hey @maha-sachin, happy to have you!

Outside the Outreachy application period, we tend to not assign issues to individuals (due to the effort of unassigning, in case the task is later abandoned). Best is to just comment here, as you did, and make an attempt. If you get stuck, you can open a draft PR and ask for help. ❤️
