  1. Create an HTML form with two input fields for dates and a button to calculate the difference.
<form>
  <label for="startDate">Start Date:</label>
  <input type="date" id="startDate" name="startDate">

  1. Add event listener to the button that calls a function to calculate the difference between the two dates using the Date object in JavaScript.
index.tsx
document.getElementById('calculateBtn').addEventListener('click', function() {
  var startDate = new Date(document.getElementById('startDate').value);
  var endDate = new Date(document.getElementById('endDate').value);
  var timeDiff = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();
  var daysDiff = Math.floor(timeDiff / (1000 * 3600 * 24));
  
  alert('The number of days between ' + startDate.toLocaleDateString() + ' and ' + endDate.toLocaleDateString() + ' is ' + daysDiff);
});

  1. Display the calculated difference on the web page using DOM manipulation.
index.tsx
document.getElementById('calculateBtn').addEventListener('click', function() {
  var startDate = new Date(document.getElementById('startDate').value);
  var endDate = new Date(document.getElementById('endDate').value);
  var timeDiff = endDate.getTime() - startDate.getTime();
  var daysDiff = Math.floor(timeDiff / (1000 * 3600 * 24));
  
  var resultElement = document.createElement('div');
  resultElement.textContent = 'The number of days between ' + startDate.toLocaleDateString() + ' and ' + endDate.toLocaleDateString() + ' is ' + daysDiff;
  
  document.body.appendChild(resultElement);
});

Now you have a web site that lets you input two dates and calculates the number of days between those two dates when the calculate button is clicked.
