how to use the isthisyear function from date-fns in javascript

To use the isThisYear function from date-fns in JavaScript, you will first need to install the date-fns library. This can be done with npm (Node Package Manager) by running the following command in the command line:

index.tsx
npm install date-fns
21 chars
2 lines

Once installed, you can import the isThisYear function from the library in your JavaScript file by using the import statement:

index.tsx
import { isThisYear } from 'date-fns';
39 chars
2 lines

The isThisYear function takes a Date object or a date string as its argument and returns true if it is a date from the current year and false otherwise. Here's an example usage:

index.tsx
const today = new Date();
const someDate = new Date('2022-03-28T08:00:00.000Z');

console.log(isThisYear(today)); // true
console.log(isThisYear(someDate)); // false

6 lines

In this example, we create two Date objects: today, which is the current date, and someDate, which is a date from 2022. We then pass these dates as arguments to the isThisYear function and log the results to the console.

Note that the isThisYear function relies on the user's system clock, so it may produce unexpected results if the system clock is not set correctly.
