After you've installed the package, you can import the startOfSecond function to your code and use it to get the start of a second for a given date or timestamp.

index.tsx
import { startOfSecond } from 'date-fns';

const date = new Date();
const startOfSecondDate = startOfSecond(date);

console.log(startOfSecondDate); // returns a Date object representing the start of the second for the input date

The startOfSecond function takes a date or timestamp as its parameter and returns a new Date object representing the start of the second for the given input. If you pass in a timestamp, startOfSecond will convert it to a Date object first.

Note that the startOfSecond function sets the milliseconds to 0 to represent the start of the second.
