Inputmask jquery not allowing mm/dd/yy format

Question

I am using Jquery Inputmask to validate date entered by users in a textbox. My requirement is to enter the date in mm/dd/yy format but Inputmask only allows mm/dd/yyyy format. Can anyone tell me if there's a workaround to achieve the same result with mm/dd/yy format.

Edit: The question is showing as possible duplicate but my requirement is to accept date in mm/dd/yy format specifically.

$("#datepicker1").datepicker({
   constrainInput:"true",
   dateFormat:"mm/dd/yy"
});


var maskConfig = {
      leapday: "29-02-",
      separator: "/",
      showMaskOnHover: false,
      showMaskOnFocus: false,
      placeholder: "00/00/0000"
}

$('#datepicker1').inputmask('mm/dd/yyyy',maskConfig);

 $(".datepicker1").datepicker({
       constrainInput:"true",
       format:"mm/dd/yy"
    });


    var maskConfig = {
          leapday: "29-02-",
          separator: "/",
          showMaskOnHover: true,
          showMaskOnFocus: true,
          placeholder: "00/00/00"
    }
