UTC DateTime to browser DateTime
** A quick example to get browser time inside the editor. **
Details: Inject node injects the current datetime and dashboard ui_template converts that datetime to local time.
** Note **: Node-RED dashboard should be open for this flow to work.
Example use case: I use this flow to convert DateTime coming from the database to local/browser DateTime(for dashboard display).
