Basic example

A few predefined events allowing you to see how the plugin looks like.

        
            
          <div class="calendar" id="calendar"></div>

Event formats

Calendar events can be added with time in two different formats - 12h or 24h. Optionally, you can also use the dayjs static getter which returns the current date object. We recommend reading the dayjs library documentation before using this method.

Customize captions

You can customize all captions very easily using data attributes. Detailed options are described in the API tab.

Custom attributes

You can add your own attributes to existing and new events. Below is an example with the id attribute.

        
            
          <div id="calendar-11"></div>
