Month Picker

GithubStorybook logoStorybookSketch logoSketch

Examples

The Month Picker component renders a grid of checkboxes with shortened month names as well as buttons for selecting or deselecting all. For internationalization one can pass a locale prop, and the month names will change to match the language of the locale. Full month names are also included as aria-label attributes.
