The end of @material-ui/pickers 🙈, long live @mui/x-date-pickers

[dmtrKovalenko]

And that's not the time to cry! ✌️❤️ After a long year of work on v4, pickers are finally taking an official place at MUI. It's meant to move under MUI X. So mui/material-ui-pickers is no longer supported.

We have closed the docs and moved all the work which will include the new era of date & time picking! In MUI X, this project will live as a generic date picker library, with a deep Material UI integration, among others.

@dmtrKovalenko Hi, great work on this library, I had a question, will the v3 and the docs still be available on this repo even if Material-UI v5 is stable and out?

I just want to know in order to prepare if I have to force and make a change in our current project.

Thanks for the great work again on this library!

[dmtrKovalenko]

@simplecommerce It will be available under the same domain name. Just I am going to add a persistent banner about the project migration

What about suporting jalaali or hijri calandar system in material-ui v5 ?

[oliviertassinari]

@j209 We are using date-io, so it should still be supported. Would you like to add a demo for it?

[rajzik]

@dmtrKovalenko Maybe archive this repository as it is no longer active?

[dmtrKovalenko]

@rajzik once all the issues will be moved and the core documentation demo for pickers will be fixed  – I will definitely archive this repo :)

It would be great if there is a demo for hijri and jalali calendar support in material ui v5+.

Great job on getting adopted in MUI V5 and on building this in general. As a frontend developer I've been working/dealing/struggling with date pickers for almost two decades now, so I know how much effort it takes to create a usable date picker. Moreover, even in these modern days I see major players like Microsoft Windows 10 missing the boat completely. So kudos on getting this one right.

Looking forward to migrating to V5. Cheers 👏

[dmtrKovalenko]

@MartinDevillers thank you for your warm words. Unfortunately I cannot do this for now cause material-ui.com docs site is completely broken and buggy for pickers examples.

@dmtrKovalenko Are you referring to this issue mui/material-ui#23899?

Exactly
