Solution Kit Solution Kit  

Creating a calendar widget involves building a component. It displays a monthly calendar to navigate between months and highlight selected dates.


Many developers could face it tedious to work with dates and calendar, which can be simplified by using libraries like react-calendar. It has options to pick dates, months, years, or even decades and also has an option to select range of dates. In this solution kit, I am sharing the code snippet and library that I use.


PS: Preview of the output that you will get on running this code from your IDE

Code

In this solution we use the Calendar of the react-calendar library.

Display multiple dates on React Calendar

JavaScriptdotLines of Code : 23dotLicense : Strong Copyleft (CC BY-SA 4.0)

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import Calendar from 'react-calendar';

class MyApp extends Component {
  state = {
    date: new Date(),
  }

  onChange = date => this.setState({ date })

  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <Calendar
          onChange={this.onChange}
          value={this.state.date}
          selectRange={true}
        />
      </div>
    );
  }
}
  1. Copy the code using the "Copy" button above, and paste it in a react application in your IDE.
  2. Run the application in your server to see the calendar in your page.


You can also add styling to the calendar by adding this piece of code

import 'react-calendar/dist/Calendar.css';


I hope you found this useful. I have added the link to dependent libraries in the following sections.


I found this code snippet by searching for "react calendar" in kandi. You can try any such use case!
