@itzikbenh why is there "start" in arguments and then you define it again with "let start = 1" ? Not sure how you made that work

Thanks a lot, here is some code to get full weeks ( like first week will be like '26-2'), also allow you to start from any day of the week.
Any suggestion will be appreciated

// _start is 0 based
getFullWeeksStartAndEndInMonth = (month, year, _start) => {
    let weeks = [],
      firstDate = new Date(year, month, 1),
      lastDate = new Date(year, month + 1, 0),
      numDays = lastDate.getDate()

    let start = 1
    let end = 7 - firstDate.getDay()
    if (firstDate.getDay() === _start) {
      end = 7
    } else {
      preMonthEndDay = new Date(year, month, 0)
      start = preMonthEndDay.getDate() + 1 - firstDate.getDay() + _start
      end = 7 - firstDate.getDay() + _start
      weeks.push({ start: start, end: end })
      start = end + 1
      end = end + 7
    }
    while (start <= numDays) {
      weeks.push({ start: start, end: end })
      start = end + 1
      end = end + 7
      if (end > numDays) {
        end = end - numDays + _start
        weeks.push({ start: start, end: end })
        break
      }

This TypeScript function returns date ranges for all weeks in given month:

    getWeeksInMonth(year: number, month: number) {

        const weeks = [];
        const firstDay: Date = new Date(year, month, 1);
        const lastDay: Date = new Date(year, month + 1, 0);
        const daysInMonth: number = lastDay.getDate();
        let dayOfWeek: number = firstDay.getDay();
        let start: number;
        let end: number;

        for (let i = 1; i < daysInMonth + 1; i++) {

            if (dayOfWeek === 0 || i === 1) {
                start = i;
            }

            if (dayOfWeek === 6 || i === daysInMonth) {

                end = i;

                if (start !== end) {

                    weeks.push({
                        start: start,
                        end: end
                    });
                }
            }

            dayOfWeek = new Date(year, month, i).getDay();
        }

        return weeks;
    }

Usage:

getWeeksInMonth(2019, 2);

Result for March 2019:

0: {start: 1, end: 3}
1: {start: 4, end: 10}
2: {start: 11, end: 17}
3: {start: 18, end: 24}
4: {start: 25, end: 31}

Hi abcx,
your function is not bad BUT it is not working correctly when we put year=2018 and month=Avril or July.
For example, result for Avril 2018 :
0: {start: 2, end: 8}
1: {start: 9, end: 15}
2: {start: 16, end: 22}
3: {start: 23, end: 29}

We should have for Avril 2018 :

1: {start: 2, end: 8}
2: {start: 9, end: 15}
3: {start: 16, end: 22}
4: {start: 23, end: 29}
5: {start: 30, end: 30}

I used dayjs to write it. dayjs
It works !

const getWeekMonth = (year, month) => {
  const firstDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).startOf('month').format('d')

  let startDay
  if (firstDay === 1) {
    startDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).format('YYYY-MM-DD')
  } else {
    const diffDays = (8 - firstDay) % 7
    startDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).startOf('month').add(diffDays, 'days').format('YYYY-MM-DD')
  }

  const lastDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).endOf('month').format('d')

  let endDay
  if (lastDay === 0) {
    endDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).endOf('month').format('YYYY-MM-DD')
  } else {
    const lastDiffDays = 6 - lastDay
    endDay = dayjs(`${year}-${month}`).startOf('month').add(1, 'month').add(lastDiffDays, 'days').format('YYYY-MM-DD')
  }

  const weeks = (dayjs(endDay).diff(dayjs(startDay), 'days') + 1) / 7

  const weekList = []
  for (let i = 1; i <= weeks; i++) {
    weekList.push({
      weekName: `第${i}周`,
      num: i,
      startDay,
      endDay: dayjs(startDay).add(6, 'days').format('YYYY-MM-DD'),
      range: `${dayjs(startDay).format('MM-DD')}~${dayjs(startDay).add(6, 'days').format('MM-DD')}`
    })
    startDay = dayjs(startDay).add(7, 'days').format('YYYY-MM-DD')
  }

If you want to support starting with Monday,
I believe this TypeScript function should work best.

getWeeksInMonth(year: number, month: number) { const daysName = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday'];
const weeks=[];      
const  lastDate = new Date(year, month + 1, 0); 

let start: number=0;
let end: number; 

for (let i = 1; i < lastDate.getDate()+1; i++) {         
  if (daysName[Number(new Date(year, month, i).getDay())] =="Sunday" || i == lastDate.getDate()) {
    end= i;
    weeks.push({
        start:start+1,
        end:end
      }); 
      start = i;           
   }
 }         
 console.log(weeks);  }`

I make this for get array of weeks:

function getWeeksStartAndEndInMonth(_month: number, _year: number, returnDate: boolean = false) {
    const lastDay = new Date(_year, _month + 1, 0);
    let weeks: Array<{start: number, end: number}> = [];
    let _days = [];
    for (let _day = 1; _day <= lastDay.getDate(); _day++){
        let _thisDay = new Date(_year, _month, _day);
        _days.push(returnDate ? _thisDay : _day);
        if(_thisDay.getDay() === 6){
            weeks.push({start: _days[0], end: _days[_days.length-1]});
            _days = [];
        }else if(_thisDay.getDate() === lastDay.getDate()){
            weeks.push({start: _days[0], end: _days[_days.length-1]});
        }
    }
    return weeks;
}

for(let i = 0; i <= 11; i++){
    let _month = getWeeksStartAndEndInMonth(i,2020);
    console.log(_month);
}

If you want a function to return a month's week based on business days this shall work:

function getWeeksInMonth(year: number, month: number) {
        const weeks = [],
            firstDate = new Date(year, month, 1),
            lastDate = new Date(year, month + 1, 0),
            numDays = lastDate.getDate();
        
        let offset = 0;

        if(firstDate.getDay() === 0) offset = 1;
        else if(firstDate.getDay() === 6) offset = 2;

        let start = 1 + offset;
        let end: number;

        if(offset === 0) end = 5 - firstDate.getDay() + 1;
        else end = 5 - start + 1 + (offset * 2);

        while(start <= numDays) {
            weeks.push({start: start, end: end});
            start = end + 3;
            end = end + 7;
            end = start === 1 && end === 8 ? 1 : end;
            if(end > numDays) end = numDays;
        }
