How can I pick a past date that is a Tuesday or Monday, then get timestamps at 2 week intervals in JavaScript? I am using faker.js. I can only get a date in the past in years, 2 and 1 as shown below.
const releaseStart1 = new Date(faker.date.past(2, new Date(Date.now())));
const releaseEnd1 = new Date(faker.date.past(1, new Date(Date.now())));

What is the reason you would use faker for that?

Good point. It was the only way I knew of to get dates in the past. It would actually be better, if i could pick a Tuesday 3, 5, or however many months ago specifically.

Look at using moment as it will let you do something like
let date = moment().subtract(7, 'days').format();
Which will return the date. You can use days weeks months seconds minutes hours etc
