> how do we get tomorrow based on today?

That's all explained on
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date>:

| The JavaScript date is measured in milliseconds since midnight
| 01 January, 1970 UTC. A day holds 86,400,000 milliseconds.

| getTime
|   Returns the numeric value of the specified date as the number of  |
  milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (negative for
|   prior times).

So a simple solution is:

var today = new Date();
var tomorrow = new Date(today.getTime() + 86400000)

For further details on date calculations have a look at the parameters
of the constructor function and the get*() methods of Date.
