Answer 1

In JavaScript, when we fetch a date field from an excel file, it shows some integer/floating point number. To convert the number back to date, we can use the following:

1. install excel-date-to-js package (npm i excel-date-to-js)
2. Run this snippet:

   const { getJsDateFromExcel } = require("excel-date-to-js") 
   getJsDateFromExcel(dateFieldFromExcelFile)   e.g. getJsDateFromExcel(data[1][0])
