Date picker

Hello,

I have found several posts about date pickers on Laracast, but not any recent ones.

There are also several more or less interesting JS date pickers on the web.

Which one are you using ?

Thanks for sharing ;).

@MichalOravec Thank you ... yes I already use this one.

The idea of using another one is for the possibility to customize it a bit.

@vincent15000 The benefit of the native html pickers is that they work well on mobile devices

You can do customizing with a hidden text field and JS.

The picker will show:

04/15/2023

I, using javascript change a "not shown field" to

2023-04-15

Just a little js, then use that field for the request. Or overlay to type in a custom date, many ways to achieve this.

And I am referring to the native html picker.

Laravel supports several front-end frameworks like Bootstrap, Vue.js, and React, each with its date picker. Here are some popular date pickers used with Laravel:

Bootstrap Datepicker: A popular datepicker built with Bootstrap and jQuery. It's easy to implement and has a lot of features like different date formats, selectable years, months, and days, and more.

Vue Datepicker: A lightweight and customizable datepicker built with Vue.js. It supports various features like multiple date selection, date ranges, disabled dates, and more.

Flatpickr: A lightweight and powerful datepicker built with JavaScript. It supports multiple languages, different date formats, time selection, and more.

Pikaday: A simple and lightweight datepicker built with JavaScript. It supports various features like keyboard navigation, multiple date selection, and more.

These are just a few examples of date pickers that can be used with Laravel. The best one for you will depend on your specific needs and preferences
