Once you have imported the function, you can use it to add a specified number of quarters to a given date. The function takes two arguments:

• date: The date to which quarters need to be added.
• amount: The number of quarters to be added (can be positive or negative).

Here's an example of how you can use the addQuarters function to add 3 quarters to the current date:

index.tsx
const currentDate = new Date()
const futureDate = addQuarters(currentDate, 3)

console.log(futureDate) // Output: Date object representing the current date + 3 quarters

Note that the function returns a new Date object and does not modify the original date object.
