Preface

The component depends on the @internationalized/date package, which solves a lot of the problems that come with working with dates and times in JavaScript.

We highly recommend reading through the documentation for the package to get a solid feel for how it works, and you'll need to install it in your project to use the date-related components.

Installation

Install the date package.

sh
$ npm add @internationalized/date

Install the component from your command line.

sh
$ npm add reka-ui

Anatomy

Import all parts and piece them together.

vue
<script setup>
import {
  MonthPickerCell,
  MonthPickerCellTrigger,
  MonthPickerGrid,
  MonthPickerGridBody,
  MonthPickerGridRow,
  MonthPickerHeader,
  MonthPickerHeading,
  MonthPickerNext,
  MonthPickerPrev,
  MonthPickerRoot,
} from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <MonthPickerRoot>
    <MonthPickerHeader>
      <MonthPickerPrev />
