Measured entry

shadcn-block-calendar-13

calendarminimal-flat

A client-side single-date calendar block with a control for switching the caption between month-and-year, month-only, and year-only dropdowns. It ships as a shadcn registry component and composes the shadcn Calendar, Label, and Select primitives, which in turn rely on React DayPicker, date-fns, Radix UI, shared styling, and the shadcn utility helper.

Verdict

A sound fit for shadcn apps that need flexible month and year navigation around a single-date picker. It builds, mounts, and stays contained in the verified harness, but it needs a shadcn-style setup and does not mount as a bare drop-in.

Use it if

  • You need single-date selection with direct month or year navigation.
  • Your app already uses shadcn components and its Tailwind styling conventions.
  • You want the caption navigation mode to be selectable by the user.

Skip it if

  • You need a date range, time selection, or scheduling rules out of the box.
  • You want a framework-neutral calendar with no Radix UI or shadcn dependencies.
  • The caption mode should be fixed and the extra selector would add unnecessary interface.

In a non-shadcn project, add the Calendar, Label, and Select component sources; React DayPicker, date-fns, and the required Radix UI packages; the shared class-name utility; Tailwind theme tokens; and matching component styles. Update the registry import aliases to your local paths.
