Working with JavaScript dates? Yeah, just use date-fns...

Working with JavaScript dates is kind of a mess, but you can make it easy with date-fns. It's a library with a bunch of helper functions from adding and subtracting dates and hours to formatting timestamps in any language you need. Stop using Moment.js and clogging up your projects with a bunch of unused code when you can just use date-fns instead...

how to get all dates between to and from date using fns?

[@mishenthakshana3407]

Thankyou Eric bro ❤, Can I know how to display like this '2 minutes ago' like that live updating without page refresh really struggling with this

[@EricMurphyxyz]

Not sure, but I assume you would use something like setInterval and reformat the date every minute or so
