react-datepicker VS react-modal

react-datepicker is a lightweight library with a lot of features.

I have added a date picker to my application. I want to make the selected date section read-only, but when I add readonly to the input, it blocks the entire date picker. I need to do this in css or its component. (without js)

Live demo

I searched for alternative date pickers to use in place of the default HTML one. I found out that there is a React Date Picker component that can be used in place of the field.

Exactly. There are tons of different ways to solve that problem in react-date picker, this being one of them: https://reactdatepicker.com/#example-year-dropdown

The trending project I researched and selected is react-datepicker https://github.com/Hacker0x01/react-datepicker/ I chose this project because datetime selection is a hard problem (localization, internationalization, accessibility, time zones, etc.) that we encounter daily, so a good library could be / can be very helpful.

https://reactdatepicker.com/ I’m a rookie intern and was tasked with theming this to the project / brand I’m working for. I personally recommend this.

For styling and additional configuration, refer to full documentation here: React Modal Documentation.

So, modals are not hard. FWIW, I'm partial to React-Modal as it's very easy to use, has solid accessibility built in and has almost no actual styles to start with.

Check out react-modal (https://github.com/reactjs/react-modal)

Im using react-modal which is pretty great. Is it possible to dynamically size it (perhaps with css media tag). For example,

{ "name": "react-modal", "version": "3.15.1", "description": "Accessible modal dialog component for React.JS", "main": "./lib/index.js", "module": "./lib/index.js", "repository": { "type": "git", "url": "https://github.com/reactjs/react-modal.git" }, "homepage": "https://github.com/reactjs/react-modal", "bugs": "https://github.com/reactjs/react-modal/issues", "directories": { "example": "examples" }, "scripts": { ... }, "authors": [ "Ryan Florence" ], "license": "MIT", "devDependencies": { ... }, "dependencies": { ... }, "peerDependencies": { ... }, "tags": [ ... ], "keywords": [ ... ], "engines": { "node": ">=8" } }

React modal that is very accessible

For testing, the app is has a small div that contains a single Button, which opens a form in the center of the page (position absolute). For the Form component, I created using div, form, and even react-modal (https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-modal) library (I switched back and forth during testing).

Hello, I've been testing with React-modal (https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-modal), div, and form but not very successful.
