Integrating FullCalendar.js into a React project involves several steps, including installing the necessary packages, setting up the FullCalendar component, and configuring it according to your needs. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set up FullCalendar in your React project:
- Install the necessary packages:
First, we need to install FullCalendar along with its React wrapper and any plugins you want to use. Open your terminal and navigate to your React project directory, then run:
npm install @fullcalendar/react @fullcalendar/core @fullcalendar/daygrid @fullcalendar/timegrid @fullcalendar/interaction
2.Import FullCalendar in your component:
Create or open the component where you want to display the calendar. Import the necessary FullCalendar modules at the top of your file.
import React from 'react'; import FullCalendar from '@fullcalendar/react'; // must go before plugins import dayGridPlugin from '@fullcalendar/daygrid'; import timeGridPlugin from '@fullcalendar/timegrid'; import interactionPlugin from '@fullcalendar/interaction'; // needed for dayClick
