How can I adjust this function to work with daylight savings?

Time:11-09

I was using this example to create a calendar in angular. But I realized today that when DST Ends the date is repeated and then the days are off by one from then on.

Look at the stackblitz. November 7 is repeated. stackblitz link to calendar

This is the code that generates the calendar days. How do I adjust this so that DST doesn't mess everything up?

  private getCalendarDays(date = new Date) {
var startDate;

startDate = this.getCalendarStartDay(date).getTime();


 const calendarStartTime =  startDate;
    return this.range(0, 41)
      .map(num => new Date(calendarStartTime   DAY_MS * num));
  }

  private getCalendarStartDay(date = new Date) {
    const [year, month] = [date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth()];
    const firstDayOfMonth = new Date(year, month, 1).getTime();

    return this.range(1,7)
      .map(num => new Date(firstDayOfMonth - DAY_MS * num))
      .find(dt => dt.getDay() === 0)
  }

  private range(start, end, length = end - start   1) {
    return Array.from({ length }, (_, i) => start   i)
  }

I'm not pretty sure but I imagine you can get the dates at 12 a.m. to avoid the problem

  private getCalendarStartDay(date = new Date) {
    const [year, month] = [date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth()];

    //see that I indicate the 1 of the month at 12:00:00
    const firstDayOfMonth = new Date(year, month,1,12,0,0,0).getTime();

    //well the range from 0 to 6
    return this.range(0,6)
      .map(num => new Date(firstDayOfMonth - DAY_MS * num))
      .find(dt => dt.getDay() === 0)
  }

NOTE: I got your error in october, not in november
