The date time field works from admin screen. You get a nice looking control to pick up date. How to use in Dynamic forms in front end screen ?

Unfortunately it's not possible at the moment to use content fields (or anything from content item editors) with Dynamic Forms. The other way around is supported, i.e. you can build a form with Dynamic Forms and bind it to a content type's fields and parts so the form submissions will created content items.

Yes, I am doing this, but the user won't have a nice looking datetime picker control. You just have a textbox to enter the date. Any other solution ?

That's right, you won't be able to use the date picker directly...
However do you know that on DotNest you can write themes? https://dotnest.com/knowledge-base/topics/theming/writing-a-dotnest-theme-from-scratch You could inject some JS to add a datepicker or ultimately you can override how that text field is rendered with a Liquid template (and add a datepicker from there).
