The startOfMinuteDate variable now contains a new Date instance representing the start of the minute for the original date and time specified in the currentDate variable.

Note that the startOfMinute function uses the local timezone by default. If you need to use a different timezone, you can pass it as a second argument to the function. For example:

index.tsx
const startOfMinuteDate = startOfMinute(currentDate, { timeZone: 'America/Los_Angeles' });
