      Description

      Situation: The last modified column in BioViz Connect displays the date in the format:
      10-09-2019 16:08:17
      This format can be confusing to users unsure of whether month/day comes first. A better way to display the date/time would be to show just the date for files/folders that have not been modified in the last 24 hours:
      October 9, 2019
      For files/folders modified within the last 24 hours show the time that it was modified:
      16:08:17

      Note: Double-check that sorting by the last modified column still works as expected.

      Task: Implement these changes.

          Dates look good.

          Clock time is problematic. Times are currently displayed in GMT, which may be confusing to the user. Can we get the user's current time zone to calculate their local time to display in the Last Modified column?

          So if I'm on Eastern time zone that would be GMT-5:00.

          I thought we were not going to show time of day?

          Let's not show it and then add it later if users request it.

          It would be easier to just show the date and not time.
