The date component is a simplified version of the date/time component that is specifically designed to capture only the date, without the time.
This component provides users with an intuitive date picker that makes it easy to select a specific day. It’s ideal for forms where the time of day is not relevant—such as selecting a birth date, due date, or booking date.
When to Use the Date Component
Use the date component when:
• You only need to capture a calendar date
• Time of day is not important
• You want to streamline the user experience with a focused date picker
If you need to capture both date and time, consider using the date/time component instead.
