Tailwind CSS Full Calendar

Getting started

Setup

Below are the comprehensively outlined steps you can follow to seamlessly integrate FullCalendar JS with FlyonUI.

1
Installation
Install fullcalendar using npm:
npm install fullcalendar
2
Include FullCalendar JavaScript
Add the following script to your page:
<script src="../path/to/fullcalendar/index.global.js"></script>
Note: A CDN link won't work here because we need to customize the default Vendor CSS to match FlyonUI's design.
3
Update Tailwind Configuration
Add the path to the vendor and helper JS files in the content section of your Tailwind configuration file. Also, set vendors="true" in the FlyonUI config to ensure the override CSS is generated:
module.exports = { content: [ '../path/to/fullcalendar/**/*.js', ], flyonui: { vendors: true // Enable vendor-specific CSS generation } }

Initialize FullCalendar

Add the initialization JavaScript code for FullCalendar after including the FullCalendar JS library:

For more options and detailed configurations, refer to the FullCalendar JS documentation .

const calendarDefault = new FullCalendar.Calendar(document.getElementById('calendar-container'), {
  initialView: 'dayGridMonth',
  events: [
        // Your events here
  ]
});
calendarDefault.render();

Class Name	Type	Description
fc-event-primary	Modifier	Makes event of primary variant.
fc-event-secondary	Modifier	Makes event of secondary variant.
fc-event-info	Modifier	Makes event of info variant.
fc-event-success	Modifier	Makes event of success variant.
fc-event-warning	Modifier	Makes event of warning variant.
fc-event-error	Modifier	Makes event of error variant.
fc-event-disabled	Modifier	Makes disabled range to prevent events.

Basic usage

Default example

The following example demonstrates the usage of a default full calendar, initialized with the JavaScript code provided below.

<script>
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
  const calendarDefaultExample = document.getElementById('calendar')
  const eventDay = new Date()
  const calendarDefault = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendarDefaultExample, {
    initialView: 'dayGridMonth',
    buttonText: {
      today: 'Today'
    },
    events: [
      {
        title: 'Learn JavaScript',
        start: eventDay.toISOString().split('T')[0],
        classNames: ['fc-event-primary']
      }
    ]
  })
})
calendarDefault.render()
</script>

Custom example

The following example demonstrates the usage of a custom functional full calendar with event modal, initialized with the JavaScript code provided below.

<div class="card flex not-prose p-4 w-full">
<div id="calendar-custom"></div>
</div>
<!-- Modal Button (Hidden) -->

<button type="button" class="btn hidden" id="modalTrigger"  aria-haspopup="dialog" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="calendar-event-modal" data-overlay="#calendar-event-modal"></button>

<!-- Modal -->
<div id="calendar-event-modal" class="overlay modal overlay-open:opacity-100 hidden" role="dialog" tabindex="-1">
  <div class="modal-dialog overlay-open:opacity-100">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <h3 class="modal-title" id="modalTitle">Event</h3>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-text btn-circle btn-sm absolute end-3 top-3" aria-label="Close" data-overlay="#calendar-event-modal"><span class="icon-[tabler--x] size-4"></span></button>
      </div>
      <form id="eventForm">
        <div class="modal-body pt-0">
          <div class="mb-4">
            <label class="label label-text" for="eventTitle"> Add event title below </label>
            <input type="text" id="eventTitle" class="input" placeholder="Event title" required />
          </div>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-footer">
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-soft btn-secondary" data-overlay="#calendar-event-modal">Close</button>
          <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
        </div>
      </form>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
