react-day-picker VS react-big-calendar

This one I have found to be quite customizable and supports ranges: https://react-day-picker.js.org

So, for instance, https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-day-picker is one I've used, fairly simple to install and configure - if you're doing your frontend using npm and javascript. In fact, that community focuses around frontend webdev, so there are a ton of packages you can just npm install and work practically out of the box.

For date picker, checkout https://github.com/gpbl/react-day-picker, decent documentation, and flexibility

The first thing I did was to look for a date picker library. There were a lot to choose from but I needed one that would look most similar to the theme of the application so my choice went to react-day-picker. The UI looks simple and would be the best fit for Game-night.

At first, I was feeling overly ambitious and thought I could build my own calendar. After reviewing some examples online, I quickly realized it would take a lot of time and work considering the differing days in a month and adding basic functionality. Instead I found a React component, React Day Picker, that could be easily inserted into my application.

I want to render a calendar in my app and highlight certain dates on it. To achieve that I decided to use react-day-picker library.

For those looking for a free React scheduler component library, react-big-calendar is a great option. Instead of the classic tables-caption approach, it uses Flexbox:

I am working on a simple Calendar app only using [react big calendar](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-big-calendar) which is inside a functional component. I want to fill the calendar with events from an API running on localhost:5000. How can I POST data and call the API inside a functional component and make the events from API reflect to the calendar? Thank you :)

7. React Big Calendar

You can use react big calendar its free and open source, and its really good

react-big-calendar is pretty solid. I found the docs to be a little tough to parse when trying to customize some of the views, but looking specifically at the Calendar component helped with that. You'll need one of three datetime libraries that they mention in their docs, one of which is Moment, but you've got two other options. I liked date-fns, haven't used Globalize.

Cardable has four models, Users, Games, Tables, and TimeSlots. Users log in with a username and password and can have many games. Games have a title, number of players, suggested play time, description, and can have many TimeSlots. Tables have a "location" and also have many TimeSlots. TimeSlots represent "events" and have a start time, end time, as well as an "All Day" boolean which are all necessary properties for configuring react-big-calendar, a package I used for the scheduling feature.
