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'
import enUS from 'date-fns/locale/en-US'
const locales = {
'en-US': enUS,
}
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.
