Basic formatRangeToParts usage

This method receives two Dates and returns an Array of objects containing the locale-specific tokens representing each part of the formatted date range.

Note: The return values shown in your locale may differ from those listed below.

js
const date1 = new Date(Date.UTC(1906, 0, 10, 10, 0, 0)); // Wed, 10 Jan 1906 10:00:00 GMT
const date2 = new Date(Date.UTC(1906, 0, 10, 11, 0, 0)); // Wed, 10 Jan 1906 11:00:00 GMT

const fmt = new Intl.DateTimeFormat("en", {
  hour: "numeric",
  minute: "numeric",
});

console.log(fmt.formatRange(date1, date2)); // '10:00 – 11:00 AM'

fmt.formatRangeToParts(date1, date2);
// [
//   { type: 'hour',      value: '10',  source: "startRange" },
//   { type: 'literal',   value: ':',   source: "startRange" },
//   { type: 'minute',    value: '00',  source: "startRange" },
//   { type: 'literal',   value: ' – ', source: "shared"     },
