const localizer = momentLocalizer(moment);
const MyCalendar = ({ events }) => (

import { Calendar, momentLocalizer } from 'react-big-calendar';
import moment from 'moment';
import withDragAndDrop from 'react-big-calendar/lib/addons/dragAndDrop';
import 'react-big-calendar/lib/addons/dragAndDrop/styles.css';
import 'react-big-calendar/lib/css/react-big-calendar.css';
const localizer = momentLocalizer(moment);
const DnDCalendar = withDragAndDrop(Calendar);
const MyCalendar = ({ events, onEventDrop }) => (
<DnDCalendar
localizer={localizer}
events={events}
startAccessor="start"
endAccessor="end"
style={{ height: 500 }}
onEventDrop={onEventDrop}
/>
);
FullCalendar is a full-featured JavaScript calendar that can be customized to suit various needs. It offers a wide range of views and supports drag-and-drop, event resizing, and custom styling. Compared to react-big-calendar, FullCalendar has a more extensive set of features and plugins but may require more configuration.
react-calendar is a lightweight calendar component for React. It provides basic calendar functionalities like month, year, and decade views. It is simpler and easier to use compared to react-big-calendar but lacks advanced features like drag-and-drop and custom views.
react-datepicker is a simple and customizable date picker component for React. It focuses on date selection rather than event management. While it does not offer the same level of calendar views and event handling as react-big-calendar, it is a good choice for applications that need a straightforward date picker.
An events calendar component built for React and made for modern browsers (read: IE10+) and uses flexbox over the classic tables-ception approach.
Inspired by Full Calendar.
yarn add react-big-calendar
or npm install --save react-big-calendar
Include react-big-calendar/lib/css/react-big-calendar.css
for styles, and make sure your calendar's container
element has a height, or the calendar won't be visible. To provide your own custom styling, see the Custom Styling topic.

react-big-calendar
includes three options for handling the date formatting and culture localization, depending
on your preference of DateTime libraries. You can use either the Moment.js, Globalize.js or date-fns localizers.
Regardless of your choice, you must choose a localizer to use this library:
import { Calendar, momentLocalizer } from 'react-big-calendar'
import moment from 'moment'
const localizer = momentLocalizer(moment)
const MyCalendar = props => (
<div>
<Calendar
localizer={localizer}
events={myEventsList}
startAccessor="start"
endAccessor="end"
style={{ height: 500 }}
/>
</div>
)
import { Calendar, globalizeLocalizer } from 'react-big-calendar'
import globalize from 'globalize'
const localizer = globalizeLocalizer(globalize)
const MyCalendar = props => (
<div>
<Calendar
localizer={localizer}
events={myEventsList}
startAccessor="start"
endAccessor="end"
style={{ height: 500 }}
/>
</div>
)
import { Calendar, dateFnsLocalizer } from 'react-big-calendar'
import format from 'date-fns/format'
import parse from 'date-fns/parse'
import startOfWeek from 'date-fns/startOfWeek'
import getDay from 'date-fns/getDay'
const locales = {
'en-US': require('date-fns/locale/en-US'),
}
const localizer = dateFnsLocalizer({
format,
parse,
startOfWeek,
getDay,
locales,
})
const MyCalendar = props => (
<div>
<Calendar
localizer={localizer}
events={myEventsList}
startAccessor="start"
endAccessor="end"
style={{ height: 500 }}
/>
</div>
)
Out of the box, you can include the compiled CSS files and be up and running. But, sometimes, you may want to style Big Calendar to match your application styling. For this reason, SASS files are included with Big Calendar.
@import 'react-big-calendar/lib/sass/styles';
@import 'react-big-calendar/lib/addons/dragAndDrop/styles'; // if using DnD
SASS implementation provides a variables
file containing color and sizing variables that you can
update to fit your application. Note: Changing and/or overriding styles can cause rendering issues with your
Big Calendar. Carefully test each change accordingly.
