RangePicker

Two-date selection — a start and an end — with optional presets.

Styling shown is demo-only — Kalyx ships zero CSS.

import { RangePicker } from '@kalyx/react';

Anatomy

<RangePicker>            {/* Root — holds the { start, end } range */}
  <RangePicker.Input part="start" /> {/* start-date combobox input */}
  <RangePicker.Input part="end" />   {/* end-date combobox input */}
  <RangePicker.Popover> {/* Floating-UI portal, role="dialog" */}
    <RangePicker.Presets> {/* role="group" of quick-range buttons */}
      <RangePicker.Preset /> {/* one quick-range toggle button */}
    </RangePicker.Presets>
    <RangePicker.Calendar /> {/* range-aware month grid */}
  </RangePicker.Popover>
</RangePicker>

Basic usage

import { useState } from 'react';
import { RangePicker, type DateRange } from '@kalyx/react';

function Example() {
  const [range, setRange] = useState<DateRange>({ start: null, end: null });
  return (
    <RangePicker value={range} onChange={setRange}>
      <RangePicker.Input part="start" placeholder="Start" />
      <RangePicker.Input part="end" placeholder="End" />
      <RangePicker.Popover>
        <RangePicker.Calendar />
      </RangePicker.Popover>
    </RangePicker>
  );
}

Selection flow: first click sets start; second click sets end. If the second click is earlier than the first, the two swap automatically.

Try it live

The live editor runs with React and all Kalyx components in scope, so import lines are omitted. Copy them in when porting to your project — see the full imports in the non-live blocks above.

Live Editor

function BasicRange() {
  const [range, setRange] = React.useState({ start: null, end: null });
  return (
    <RangePicker value={range} onChange={setRange}>

        <RangePicker.Input part="start" className="kx-live-input" placeholder="Start" />

<RangePicker> (Root)

Prop	Type	Default	Description
value	DateRange	—	Controlled range.
defaultValue	DateRange	—	Uncontrolled initial range.
onChange	(range: DateRange) => void	—	Fires on every change (including partial).
disabled	DisabledRule[] | boolean	false	Disable rules or entire picker.
readOnly	boolean	false	Prevents changes.
weekStartsOn	0 | 1	0	Week start.
displayFormat	string	'yyyy-MM-dd'	Format string.
locale	string	'en-US'	BCP 47 locale.
dir	'ltr' | 'rtl'	'ltr'	Layout direction. In 'rtl' the calendar grid carries dir="rtl" and ArrowLeft/ArrowRight are mirrored (WAI-ARIA grid pattern). See Internationalization.
displayTimezone	string	—	IANA zone. When set, start/end are civil midnight of the clicked day in this zone. See Timezone.
adapter	DateAdapter	DateFnsAdapter	Custom adapter.
labels	Partial<RangePickerLabels>	—	Override ARIA labels. Adds startInput, endInput, presetsGroup on top of DatePicker's label keys.
children	ReactNode	—	Sub-components.

DateRange

type DateRange = {
  start: ISODateString | null;
  end: ISODateString | null;
};

Kalyx doesn't enforce that end >= start while the user is selecting — it auto-swaps on commit. You get both values via onChange; the shape is always { start, end }.

<RangePicker.Input>

Two inputs required — one for start, one for end. The first input rendered acts as the Floating UI reference for the popover.

Prop	Type	Description
part	'start' | 'end'	Required. Which side of the range this input manages.
format	string	Overrides Root's displayFormat.

<RangePicker.Popover>

Same behavior as DatePicker.Popover. role="dialog", outside-click dismissal, Escape support.

<RangePicker.Calendar>

Month grid with range highlighting.

Prop	Type	Description
classNames	RangePickerCalendarClassNames	Styling.
fixedWeeks	boolean (default false)	Always render 6 week rows. Without it the grid is 4–6 rows, so the popover changes height from month to month.

type RangePickerCalendarClassNames = {
  root?: string;
  header?: string;
  title?: string;
  navButton?: string;
  grid?: string;
  gridRow?: string;
  gridCell?: string;
  day?: string;
  daySelected?: string;      // start or end day
  dayInRange?: string;       // days between start and end
  dayToday?: string;
  dayDisabled?: string;
  dayOutsideMonth?: string;
  weekdayHeader?: string;
};

data-* attributes

Day buttons emit range-aware state attributes (active-only). See Styling.

Attribute	Active when
data-range-start	Day is the range start.
data-range-end	Day is the range end.
data-in-range	Day is strictly between start and end.
data-today	Day is today.
data-focused	Day holds keyboard focus.
data-outside-month	Day belongs to an adjacent month.

<RangePicker.Presets>

Container for quick-pick buttons.

Prop	Type	Description
classNames	RangePickerPresetsClassNames	Styling.
children	ReactNode	<RangePicker.Preset> children.

type RangePickerPresetsClassNames = {
  root?: string;
  preset?: string;
  presetActive?: string;
};

<RangePicker.Preset>

A single preset button. Provide either a built-in value key or a custom range:

Prop	Type	Description
value	PresetKey	Built-in preset key.
range	DateRange	Custom range (use instead of value).
children	ReactNode	Button label.

Built-in PresetKey

type PresetKey =
  | 'today'
  | 'yesterday'
  | 'last7days'
  | 'last30days'
  | 'thisWeek'
  | 'lastWeek'
  | 'thisMonth'
  | 'lastMonth'
  | 'thisYear';

Patterns

Sidebar presets + calendar

    <RangePicker.Input part="start" />
    <RangePicker.Input part="end" />
  </div>
  <RangePicker.Popover className="flex gap-4 p-3">

Custom preset

<RangePicker.Preset
  range={{
    start: '2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z',
    end: '2026-06-30T00:00:00.000Z',
  }}>
  H1 2026
</RangePicker.Preset>

Constraining the range

<RangePicker
  value={range}
  onChange={setRange}
  disabled={[{ before: '2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z' }]}>
  ...
</RangePicker>

Event callbacks

Prop	Signature	Fires when
onChange	(range: DateRange) => void	The range changes (start click, end click, preset, input).
onOpenChange	(isOpen: boolean) => void	The popover opens or closes. Not fired on initial mount.
onCalendarNavigate	(viewMonth: ISODateString) => void	The calendar view moves to a different month. Not fired on initial mount.

Native form submission

Give each endpoint input a name. The visible formatted fields remain unnamed, and hidden fields submit the corresponding UTC-ISO values.

<RangePicker defaultValue={range}>
  <RangePicker.Input part="start" name="startDate" />
  <RangePicker.Input part="end" name="endDate" />
</RangePicker>
