Once you have installed the library, you can import the nextThursday function into your TypeScript file like this:

You can then call the nextThursday function with a Date object as its argument to get the next Thursday date. Here's an example:

index.ts
const today = new Date();
const nextThursdayDate = nextThursday(today);
console.log(nextThursdayDate); // Output: Thu Jul 01 2021 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)

In the above example, we first create a Date object for today's date. We then call the nextThursday function with this Date object as its argument to get the next Thursday's date. Finally, we log the output to the console.

Note that the nextThursday function considers the current date's time zone while calculating the next Thursday's date.
