No previous message | Next message →
Hello everybody
Yesterday, I asked for an accessible filterable multi-select (combobox). Still hoping to get some feedback there.
For the same client, I'm looking for a truly accessible date picker. We already decided to use Duet Date Picker (https://www.duetds.com/components/date-picker) one year ago, but we are unsure whether it is still maintained. And maybe meanwhile some new alternatives were born?
Again, it must be vanilla JS (no jQuery etc.).
Any hints? Thank you.

Have you explored input type date? I'm not sure how much you can style it, but it's not too bad on the eyes and seems to be accessible and supported across the latest version of all modern browsers.

Joshua,
Have you checked out https://dequeuniversity.com/library/aria/date-picker
Not sure if that meets your requirements.
