try {
  const docRef = await addDoc(collection(db, "question"), {
    title: writingTitle,
    createdAt: serverTimestamp(),
  });

If you write servertimestamp() when you write, the console window says {seconds=123123123, nanosecond=!@!@}} like this. How can I change this to Date on the web?

To convert a Firestore timestamp to a date, call toDate() on it after reading the value from the database. For more on this, see the reference docs.

There is no way to get the value before that/without reading it, as serverTimestamp() only generates a token value/sentinel that the database server recognizes as a signal to write the date/time.
