is there a way to get month names from month number?

[bryanltobing]

const MONTH_NUMBER = 5;

const monthName = format(MONTH_NUMBER,  "MMMM")

console.log(monthName) //May

You can use the localize.month function found in each locale for this.

import { enUS } from "date-fns/locale";

console.log(enUS.localize.month(0, { width: "narrow" }));      // J
console.log(enUS.localize.month(0, { width: "abbreviated" })); // Jan
console.log(enUS.localize.month(0, { width: "wide" }));        // January

// en-US defaults to a width of 'wide'
console.log(enUS.localize.month(0)); // January
