Views

The component can contain three views: day, month, and year. By default, only the day and year views are enabled.

You can customize the enabled views using the views prop. Views will appear in the order they're included in the views array.

Month and Year Calendar

If you only need the year view or the month view, you can use the YearCalendar / MonthCalendar components:

YearCalendar

MonthCalendar

Day view customization

Show additional days

To show all days of displayed weeks, including those outside of the current month, use showDaysOutsideCurrentMonth.

By default, only weeks of the current month are displayed, but you can provide a total number of week to display with fixedWeekNumber prop. This value is usually set to 6 for Gregorian calendars, because months display can vary between 4 and 6 weeks.

<DateCalendar showDaysOutsideCurrentMonth fixedWeekNumber={6} />

<DateCalendar showDaysOutsideCurrentMonth fixedWeekNumber={6} />

Display week number

To display week number, use the displayWeekNumber. You can customize the calendar week header by using the localization key localeText.calendarWeekNumberHeaderText. You can also customize what's rendered as a calendar week number, using a callback for the localization key localeText.calendarWeekNumberText.
