Once you have installed the library and its types, you can import the getWeeksInMonth function from the date-fns library and use it in your TypeScript code like this:

index.ts
import { getWeeksInMonth } from 'date-fns';

const date = new Date(2021, 8, 1); // September 1, 2021
const weeksInMonth = getWeeksInMonth(date); // 5

console.log(`There are ${weeksInMonth} weeks in September 2021.`);

In this example, we first import the getWeeksInMonth function from the date-fns library using the ES6 import syntax. We then create a Date object representing September 1, 2021, and pass it to the getWeeksInMonth function to get the number of weeks in September 2021. Finally, we log the result to the console.

Note that the getWeeksInMonth function returns the number of weeks in a month according to the ISO week numbering system. This means that the first week of a month is the week that contains the first Thursday of the month. If the first day of the month is a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, the first week of the month belongs to the previous month.
