DatePicker
Composable date picker built on React Aria DatePicker with DateField and Calendar composition

Anatomy
DatePicker follows a composition-first API. Compose DateField and Calendar explicitly to control structure and styling.
import {Calendar, DateField, DatePicker, Label} from '@lenso/ui';
export default () => ( <DatePicker> <Label /> <DateField.Group> <DateField.Input> {(segment) => <DateField.Segment segment={segment} />} </DateField.Input> <DateField.Suffix> <DatePicker.Trigger> <DatePicker.TriggerIndicator /> </DatePicker.Trigger> </DateField.Suffix> </DateField.Group> <DatePicker.Popover> <Calendar aria-label="Choose date"> <Calendar.Header> <Calendar.YearPickerTrigger> <Calendar.YearPickerTriggerHeading /> <Calendar.YearPickerTriggerIndicator /> </Calendar.YearPickerTrigger> <Calendar.NavButton slot="previous" /> <Calendar.NavButton slot="next" /> </Calendar.Header> <Calendar.Grid> <Calendar.GridHeader> {(day) => <Calendar.HeaderCell>{day}</Calendar.HeaderCell>} </Calendar.GridHeader> <Calendar.GridBody>{(date) => <Calendar.Cell date={date} />}</Calendar.GridBody> </Calendar.Grid> </Calendar> </DatePicker.Popover> </DatePicker>)Examples

Custom Indicator
DatePicker.TriggerIndicator renders the default IconCalendar when no children are provided. Pass children to replace it.

International Calendar
By default, DatePicker displays dates using the calendar system for the user's locale. You can override this by wrapping your DatePicker with I18nProvider and setting the Unicode calendar locale extension.
The example below shows the Indian calendar system:
"use client";/** HeroUI v3.2.6 adapted example. Copyright NextUI Inc. Apache-2.0. */export { InternationalCalendar } from "./scenarios";Local adaptation source above. Derived from HeroUI v3.2.6 source.
Note: The onChange event always returns a date in the same calendar system as the value or defaultValue (Gregorian if no value is provided), regardless of the displayed locale. This ensures your application logic works consistently with a single calendar system while still displaying dates in the user's preferred format.

Customization
Tailwind CSS
"use client";/** HeroUI v3.2.6 adapted example. Copyright NextUI Inc. Apache-2.0. */export { CustomStyles } from "./scenarios";Local adaptation source above. Derived from HeroUI v3.2.6 source.
Global CSS
To customize DatePicker base classes, use @layer components.
@layer components { .date-picker { @apply inline-flex flex-col gap-1; }
.date-picker__trigger { @apply inline-flex items-center justify-between; }
.date-picker__trigger-indicator { @apply text-muted; }
.date-picker__popover { @apply min-w-[var(--trigger-width)] p-0; }}Styling Reference
HeroUI follows BEM naming for reusable customization.
CSS Classes
DatePicker uses these classes in packages/styles/components/date-picker.css:
.date-picker- Root wrapper..date-picker__trigger- Trigger part that opens the popover..date-picker__trigger-indicator- Default/custom indicator slot..date-picker__popover- Popover content wrapper.
Interactive States
DatePicker supports React Aria data attributes and pseudo states:
- Open:
[data-open="true"]on trigger. - Disabled:
[data-disabled="true"]or[aria-disabled="true"]on trigger. - Focus visible:
:focus-visibleor[data-focus-visible="true"]on trigger. - Hover:
:hoveror[data-hovered="true"]on trigger.

defaultOpen | boolean | false | Initial popover open state. |
onOpenChange | (isOpen: boolean) => void | - | Called when popover open state changes. |
isDisabled | boolean | false | Disables date selection and trigger interactions. |
isInvalid | boolean | - | Marks the field as invalid for validation state. |
minValue | DateValue | - | Minimum selectable date. |
maxValue | DateValue | - | Maximum selectable date. |
name | string | - | Name used for HTML form submission. |
