Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, upgrades the date-fns library from version 2.16.1 to 2.30.0. This is a significant update, spanning 24 minor versions. While this is not a major version change, the large gap between versions introduces a risk of unforeseen issues in future patch or minor updates. My review includes a suggestion to pin the dependency to the exact version to ensure build stability and predictability until this new version is fully validated.

[gemini-code-assist]

Given the large version jump for date-fns (from 2.16.1 to 2.30.0), it's safer to pin the dependency to this specific version. Using a caret ^ allows for automatic updates to subsequent minor and patch versions, which could introduce unexpected breaking changes or bugs. Pinning the version ensures that your project uses this exact version, providing stability and making builds more predictable until you are ready to evaluate and test a newer version.
