JSON array of objects with properties “from” and “to” and group it by time period

In case if dates in the array are intersect then function should combine them in one period, else periods should be separated

var dates = [
{
"from":"03/01/2021",
"to":"03/05/2021"
  },
  {
"from":"03/08/2021",
"to":"03/10/2021"
  },
  {
"from":"03/07/2021",
"to":"03/20/2021"
  }

   ];
var item = dates;
var index = 0;
var out = document.querySelector('#test');
for(var i = 0; i < item.length; i++){
    index++;
    var from_i = Date.parse(item[i].from);
    var to_i = Date.parse(item[i].to);
    var from_index = Date.parse(item[index].from);
    var to_index = Date.parse(item[index].to);
    if(from_index >= from_i && from_index <= to_i){
        let updated_from = new Date(from_index);
        let update_to = new Date(to_index);
        console.log(updated_from);
        out.innerHTML += updated_from.toDateString() + update_to.toDateString() + "<br/>";
    }
}
<div id="test"> </div>

Case of incoming jSON: [ { "from":"03/01/2021", "to":"03/06/2021" }, { "from":"03/10/2021", "to":"03/15/2021" }, { "from":"03/20/2021", "to":"03/25/2021" } ]

Output: Mar 1-5, 7-20

you can do something like this

const data = [ { "from":"03/01/2021", "to":"03/06/2021" }, { "from":"03/10/2021", "to":"03/15/2021" }, { "from":"03/20/2021", "to":"03/25/2021" } ]

const monthToString = month => {
  const months = {
    '01': 'Jan',
    '02': 'Feb',
    '03': 'Mar',
    '04': 'Apr',
    '05': 'May',
    '06': 'Jun',
    '07': 'Jul',
    '08': 'Aug',
    '09': 'Sep',
    '10': 'Oct',
    '11': 'Nov',
    '12': 'Dec',
    
  }
  return months[month] || month
}


const result = Object.entries(data.reduce((res, {from, to}) => {
  const [monthFrom, day, year] = from.split('/')
  const [m, dayTo, y] = to.split('/')
  
  const month = monthToString(m)
  
  return {
   ...res,
   [month]: [...(res[month] || []), [day, dayTo]]
  }
  
}, {})).map(([month, days]) => `${month} ${days.map(([from, to]) => `${parseInt(from)}-${parseInt(to)}`).join(', ')}`).join('\n')

console.log(result)
