Measured entry
ruixen-calendar-wave
calendarunclassifiedmotion on file
A client-side React single-date calendar with animated month changes and a cursor-driven wave across day cells. It ships as a shadcn registry component, uses Motion for springs and presence transitions, imports the shared cn utility, relies on utility classes for color states, and can create short Web Audio ticks.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 25.80s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/cut/calendar-wave.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A polished novelty calendar for lightweight single-date selection, with clean rendering and no observed accessibility or overflow findings. It needs a shadcn-style setup because the bare project cannot resolve its shared utility import. Choose it for the wave interaction, not as a full scheduling primitive.
Use it if
- You want a compact single-date picker whose main distinction is a playful pointer response.
- Your interface already uses shadcn conventions and Motion, so the registry component fits without adaptation.
- You need previous and next month navigation plus a simple date string callback.
Skip it if
- You need date ranges, disabled dates, minimum or maximum rules, or booking availability.
- You need a strictly controlled value that reliably follows updates from its parent after mounting.
- You need localized month and weekday labels rather than the built-in English calendar copy.
- You want to avoid adding an animation dependency for a small date control.
Install
| Declared dependencies | motion |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
A non-shadcn project must install Motion, provide the cn class-combining helper at the expected alias or change that import, and configure the utility classes used for light and dark states. It also needs client-side React support; disable or remove the optional Web Audio tick if sound is unsuitable.
