Measured entry

shadcn-block-calendar-07

calendarminimal-flat

A client-side date-range picker for stays, showing adjacent months on wider layouts and stacking them on narrow screens. It ships as a shadcn registry block that wraps the project's Calendar primitive, with local React state, react-day-picker types, date-fns, Radix Slot, Tailwind utilities, and shadcn theme tokens.

Verdict

A solid fit for booking flows: it builds, mounts, stays within the tested viewports, and presents the range constraint clearly. It is not drop-in for a bare React app and needs a shadcn-style setup, including the shared Calendar primitive and utility wiring.

Use it if

  • You need a stay or booking range picker with an enforced minimum and maximum duration.
  • Your product already uses shadcn's Calendar primitive and utility conventions.
  • You want adjacent-month context that collapses cleanly on narrow screens.

Skip it if

  • You need a single-date picker, free-form date entry, or time selection.
  • Your app is not prepared to adopt shadcn aliases, theme tokens, and the shared class-name helper.
  • The added calendar dependencies are too much for a rarely used interaction.

In a non-shadcn project, add react-day-picker, date-fns, and Radix Slot; bring in the shadcn Calendar primitive, Tailwind styles and theme variables, the path alias, and the src/lib/utils class-name helper. Adapt the registry import to your local component path.
