API#
useDateRangePicker<T extends DateValue>(
props: AriaDateRangePickerProps<T>,
state: DateRangePickerState,
ref: RefObject<Element>
): DateRangePickerAria
Features#
A date range picker can be built using two separate <input type="date">
elements, but this is very limited in functionality, lacking in internationalization capabilities, inconsistent between browsers, and difficult to style. useDateRangePicker
helps achieve accessible and international date and time range pickers that can be styled as needed.
- Dates and times – Support for dates and times with configurable granularity.
- International – Support for 13 calendar systems used around the world, including Gregorian, Buddhist, Islamic, Persian, and more. Locale-specific formatting, number systems, hour cycles, and right-to-left support are available as well.
- Time zone aware – Dates and times can optionally include a time zone. All modifications follow time zone rules such as daylight saving time.
- Accessible – Each date and time unit is displayed as an individually focusable and editable segment, which allows users an easy way to edit dates using the keyboard, in any date format and locale. Users can also open a calendar popover to select date ranges in a standard month grid. Localized screen reader messages are included to announce when the selection and visible date range change.
- Touch friendly – Date segments are editable using an easy to use numeric keypad, date ranges can be selected by dragging over dates in the calendar using a touch screen, and all interactions are accessible using touch-based screen readers.
- Customizable – As with all of React Aria, the DOM structure and styling of all elements can be fully customized.
Read our blog post for more details about the internationalization, accessibility, and user experience features implemented by useDateRangePicker
.
Anatomy#
A date range picker consists of a label, and group containing two date fields and a button. Clicking the button opens a popup containing a range calendar. The date fields include segments representing each unit of a date and time (e.g. years, months, days, etc.), each of which is individually focusable and editable using the keyboard. The calendar popup offers a more visual way of choosing a date range.
useDateRangePicker
also supports optional description and error message elements, which can be used
to provide more context about the field, and any validation messages. These are linked with the
input via the aria-describedby
attribute.
useDateRangePicker
returns props that you should spread onto the appropriate elements:
Name | Type | Description |
labelProps | DOMAttributes | Props for the date range picker's visible label element, if any. |
groupProps | DOMAttributes | Props for the grouping element containing the date fields and button. |
startFieldProps | AriaDatePickerProps<DateValue> | Props for the start date field. |
endFieldProps | AriaDatePickerProps<DateValue> | Props for the end date field. |
buttonProps | AriaButtonProps | Props for the popover trigger button. |
descriptionProps | DOMAttributes | Props for the description element, if any. |
errorMessageProps | DOMAttributes | Props for the error message element, if any. |
dialogProps | AriaDialogProps | Props for the popover dialog. |
calendarProps | RangeCalendarProps<DateValue> | Props for the range calendar within the popover dialog. |
State is managed by the useDateRangePickerState
hook from @react-stately/datepicker
. The state object should be passed as an argument to useDateRangePicker
.
If the date range picker does not have a visible label, an aria-label
or aria-labelledby
prop must be passed instead to
identify it to assistive technology.
Date and time values#
Dates and times are represented in many different ways by cultures around the world. This includes differences in calendar systems, time zones, daylight saving time rules, date and time formatting, weekday and weekend rules, and much more. When building applications that support users around the world, it is important to handle these aspects correctly for each locale.
useDateRangePicker
uses the @internationalized/date library to represent dates and times. This package provides a library of objects and functions to perform date and time related manipulation, queries, and conversions that work across locales and calendars. Date and time objects can be converted to and from native JavaScript Date
objects or ISO 8601 strings. See the documentation, or the examples below for more details.
Example#
A DateRangePicker
composes several other components to produce a composite element that can be used to enter date ranges with a keyboard, or select them on a calendar. The DateField
, Popover
, Calendar
, and Button
components used in this example are independent and can be used separately from the DateRangePicker
. The code is available below, and documentation is available on the corresponding pages.

Styled examples#
Usage#
The following examples show how to use the DateRangePicker
component created in the above example.
Value#
A DateRangePicker
displays a placeholder by default. An initial, uncontrolled value can be provided to the DateRangePicker
using the defaultValue
prop. Alternatively, a controlled value can be provided using the value
prop.
Date ranges are objects with start
and end
properties containing date values, which are provided using objects in the @internationalized/date package. This library handles correct international date manipulation across calendars, time zones, and other localization concerns. useDateRangePicker
supports values of the following types:
CalendarDate
– a date without any time components. May be parsed from a string representation using theparseDate
function. Use this type to represent dates where the time is not important, such as a birthday or an all day calendar event.CalendarDateTime
– a date with a time, but not in any specific time zone. May be parsed from a string representation using theparseDateTime
function. Use this type to represent times that occur at the same local time regardless of the time zone, such as the time of New Years Eve fireworks which always occur at midnight. Most times are better stored as aZonedDateTime
.ZonedDateTime
– a date with a time in a specific time zone. May be parsed from a string representation using theparseZonedDateTime
,parseAbsolute
, orparseAbsoluteToLocal
functions. Use this type to represent an exact moment in time at a particular location on Earth.
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [value, setValue] = React.useState({
start: parseDate('2020-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-02-08')
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (uncontrolled)"
defaultValue={{
start: parseDate('2020-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-02-08')
}} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue} />
</>
);
}
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [value, setValue] = React.useState({
start: parseDate('2020-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-02-08')
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (uncontrolled)"
defaultValue={{
start: parseDate('2020-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-02-08')
}} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue} />
</>
);
}
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [value, setValue] =
React.useState({
start: parseDate(
'2020-02-03'
),
end: parseDate(
'2020-02-08'
)
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (uncontrolled)"
defaultValue={{
start:
parseDate(
'2020-02-03'
),
end: parseDate(
'2020-02-08'
)
}}
/>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
/>
</>
);
}
Events#
useDateRangePicker
accepts an onChange
prop which is triggered whenever the start or end date is edited by the user. The example below uses onChange
to update a separate element with a formatted version of the date range in the user's locale and local time zone. This is done by converting the dates to native JavaScript Date
objects to pass to the formatter.
import {useDateFormatter} from 'react-aria';
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
start: parseDate('2020-07-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-07-10')
});
let formatter = useDateFormatter({ dateStyle: 'long' });
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker label="Date range" value={range} onChange={setRange} />
<p>
Selected date:{' '}
{formatter.formatRange(
range.start.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()),
range.end.toDate(getLocalTimeZone())
)}
</p>
</>
);
}
import {useDateFormatter} from 'react-aria';
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
start: parseDate('2020-07-03'),
end: parseDate('2020-07-10')
});
let formatter = useDateFormatter({ dateStyle: 'long' });
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
value={range}
onChange={setRange}
/>
<p>
Selected date:{' '}
{formatter.formatRange(
range.start.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()),
range.end.toDate(getLocalTimeZone())
)}
</p>
</>
);
}
import {useDateFormatter} from 'react-aria';
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] =
React.useState({
start: parseDate(
'2020-07-03'
),
end: parseDate(
'2020-07-10'
)
});
let formatter =
useDateFormatter({
dateStyle: 'long'
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
value={range}
onChange={setRange}
/>
<p>
Selected date:
{' '}
{formatter
.formatRange(
range.start
.toDate(
getLocalTimeZone()
),
range.end
.toDate(
getLocalTimeZone()
)
)}
</p>
</>
);
}
Time zones#
useDateRangePicker
is time zone aware when ZonedDateTime
objects are provided as the value. In this case, the time zone abbreviation is displayed, and time zone concerns such as daylight saving time are taken into account when the value is manipulated.
In most cases, your data will come from and be sent to a server as an ISO 8601 formatted string. @internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime
objects. Which format you use will depend on what information you need to store.
parseZonedDateTime
– This function parses a date with an explicit time zone and optional UTC offset attached (e.g."2021-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]"
or"2021-11-07T00:45-07:00[America/Los_Angeles]"
). This format preserves the maximum amount of information. If the exact local time and time zone that a user selected is important, use this format. Storing the time zone and offset that was selected rather than converting to UTC ensures that the local time is correct regardless of daylight saving rule changes (e.g. if a locale abolishes DST). Examples where this applies include calendar events, reminders, and other times that occur in a particular location.parseAbsolute
– This function parses an absolute date and time that occurs at the same instant at all locations on Earth. It can be represented in UTC (e.g."2021-11-07T07:45:00Z"
), or stored with a particular offset (e.g."2021-11-07T07:45:00-07:00"
). A time zone identifier, e.g.America/Los_Angeles
, must be passed, and the result will be converted into that time zone. Absolute times are the best way to represent events that occurred in the past, or future events where an exact time is needed, regardless of time zone.parseAbsoluteToLocal
– This function parses an absolute date and time into the current user's local time zone. It is a shortcut forparseAbsolute
, and accepts the same formats.
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'),
end: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]')
}} />
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
),
end: parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]'
)
}}
/>
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start:
parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
),
end:
parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]'
)
}}
/>
useDateRangePicker
displays times in the time zone included in the ZonedDateTime
object. The above example is always displayed in Pacific Standard Time because the America/Los_Angeles
time zone identifier is provided. @internationalized/date includes functions for converting dates between time zones, or parsing a date directly into a specific time zone or the user's local time zone, as shown below.
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'),
end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-08T14:25:00Z')
}}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'),
end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-08T14:25:00Z')
}}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start:
parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'
),
end:
parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-11-08T14:25:00Z'
)
}}
/>
Granularity#
The granularity
prop allows you to control the smallest unit that is displayed by useDateRangePicker
. By default, CalendarDate
values are displayed with "day"
granularity (year, month, and day), and CalendarDateTime
and ZonedDateTime
values are displayed with "minute"
granularity. More granular time values can be displayed by setting the granularity
prop to "second"
.
In addition, when a value with a time is provided but you wish to only display the date, you can set the granularity to "day"
. This has no effect on the actual value (it still has a time component), only on what fields are displayed. In the following example, two DateRangePickers are synchronized with the same value, but display different granularities.
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState({
start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'),
end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-08T20:00:00Z')
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date and time range"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="day"
value={date}
onChange={setDate} />
</>
);
}
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState({
start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'),
end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-08T20:00:00Z')
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date and time range"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="day"
value={date}
onChange={setDate} />
</>
);
}
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] =
React.useState({
start:
parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'
),
end:
parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-04-08T20:00:00Z'
)
});
return (
<>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date and time range"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="day"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
</>
);
}
If no value
or defaultValue
prop is passed, then the granularity
prop also affects which type of value is emitted from the onChange
event. Note that by default, time values will not have a time zone because none was supplied. You can override this by setting the placeholderValue
prop explicitly. Values emitted from onChange
will use the time zone of the placeholder value.
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="second" />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
granularity="second" />
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="second" />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
granularity="second" />
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="second"
/>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={now(
'America/New_York'
)}
granularity="second"
/>
International calendars#
useDateRangePicker
supports selecting dates in many calendar systems used around the world, including Gregorian, Hebrew, Indian, Islamic, Buddhist, and more. Dates are automatically displayed in the appropriate calendar system for the user's locale. The calendar system can be overridden using the Unicode calendar locale extension, passed to the I18nProvider component.
Selected dates passed to onChange
always use the same calendar system as the value
or defaultValue
prop. If no value
or defaultValue
is provided, then dates passed to onChange
are always in the Gregorian calendar since this is the most commonly used. This means that even though the user selects dates in their local calendar system, applications are able to deal with dates from all users consistently.
The below example displays a DateRangePicker
in the Hindi language, using the Indian calendar. Dates emitted from onChange
are in the Gregorian calendar.
import {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
return (
<I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DateRangePicker label="Date range" value={range} onChange={setRange} />
<p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
<p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
</I18nProvider>
);
}
import {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
return (
<I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
value={range}
onChange={setRange}
/>
<p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
<p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
</I18nProvider>
);
}
import {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';
function Example() {
let [range, setRange] =
React.useState(null);
return (
<I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
value={range}
onChange={setRange}
/>
<p>
Start date:{' '}
{range?.start
.toString()}
</p>
<p>
End date:{' '}
{range?.end
.toString()}
</p>
</I18nProvider>
);
}
Minimum and maximum values#
The minValue
and maxValue
props can also be used to perform builtin validation. This prevents the user from selecting dates outside the valid range in the calendar, and marks the date fields as invalid using ARIA. useDateRangePicker
also validates that the end date is after the start date. You should implement a visual indication that the date range picker is invalid as well.
This example only accepts dates after today.
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
defaultValue={{
start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
}} />
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
defaultValue={{
start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
}} />
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(
getLocalTimeZone()
)}
defaultValue={{
start: parseDate(
'2022-02-03'
),
end: parseDate(
'2022-05-03'
)
}}
/>
Unavailable dates#
useDateRangePicker
supports marking certain dates as unavailable. These dates remain focusable with the keyboard in the calendar so that navigation is consistent, but cannot be selected by the user. The isDateUnavailable
prop accepts a callback that is called to evaluate whether each visible date is unavailable.
Note that by default, users may not select non-contiguous ranges, i.e. ranges that contain unavailable dates within them. Once a start date is selected in the calendar, enabled dates will be restricted to subsequent dates until an unavailable date is hit. While this is handled automatically in the calendar, additional validation logic must be provided to ensure an invalid state is displayed in the date field. This can be achieved using the validationState
prop. See below for an example of how to allow non-contiguous ranges.
This example includes multiple unavailable date ranges, e.g. dates when a rental house is not available. The minValue
prop is also used to prevent selecting dates before today. The validationState
prop is used to mark selected date ranges with unavailable dates in the middle as invalid.
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let now = today(getLocalTimeZone());
let disabledRanges = [
[now, now.add({ days: 5 })],
[now.add({ days: 14 }), now.add({ days: 16 })],
[now.add({ days: 23 }), now.add({ days: 24 })]
];
let isDateUnavailable = (date) =>
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 && date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
let [value, setValue] = React.useState(null);
let isInvalid = value &&
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
value.end.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
value.start.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : null}
/>
);
}
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let now = today(getLocalTimeZone());
let disabledRanges = [
[now, now.add({ days: 5 })],
[now.add({ days: 14 }), now.add({ days: 16 })],
[now.add({ days: 23 }), now.add({ days: 24 })]
];
let isDateUnavailable = (date) =>
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
let [value, setValue] = React.useState(null);
let isInvalid = value &&
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
value.end.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
value.start.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : null}
/>
);
}
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let now = today(
getLocalTimeZone()
);
let disabledRanges = [
[
now,
now.add({
days: 5
})
],
[
now.add({
days: 14
}),
now.add({
days: 16
})
],
[
now.add({
days: 23
}),
now.add({
days: 24
})
]
];
let isDateUnavailable =
(date) =>
disabledRanges
.some((
interval
) =>
date.compare(
interval[0]
) >= 0 &&
date.compare(
interval[1]
) <= 0
);
let [value, setValue] =
React.useState(null);
let isInvalid =
value &&
disabledRanges.some(
(interval) =>
value.end
.compare(
interval[0]
) >= 0 &&
value.start
.compare(
interval[1]
) <= 0
);
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Trip dates"
minValue={today(
getLocalTimeZone()
)}
isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
validationState={isInvalid
? 'invalid'
: null}
/>
);
}
Non-contiguous ranges#
The allowsNonContiguousRanges
prop enables a range to be selected even if there are unavailable dates in the middle. The value emitted in the onChange
event will still be a single range with a start
and end
property, but unavailable dates will not be displayed as selected. It is up to applications to split the full selected range into multiple as needed for business logic.
This example prevents selecting weekends, but allows selecting ranges that span multiple weeks.
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let { locale } = useLocale();
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Time off request"
isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
allowsNonContiguousRanges
/>
);
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let { locale } = useLocale();
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Time off request"
isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
allowsNonContiguousRanges
/>
);
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let { locale } =
useLocale();
return (
<DateRangePicker
label="Time off request"
isDateUnavailable={(date) =>
isWeekend(
date,
locale
)}
allowsNonContiguousRanges
/>
);
}
Placeholder value#
When no value is set, a placeholder is shown. The format of the placeholder is influenced by the granularity
and placeholderValue
props. placeholderValue
also controls the default values of each segment when the user first interacts with them, e.g. using the up and down arrow keys, as well as the default month shown in the calendar popover. By default, the placeholderValue
is the current date at midnight, but you can set it to a more appropriate value if needed.
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(
1980,
1,
1
)}
/>
Hide time zone#
When ZonedDateTime
objects are provided as the value of to useDateRangePicker
, the time zone abbreviation is displayed by default. However, if this is displayed elsewhere or implicit based on the usecase, it can be hidden using the hideTimeZone
option.
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'),
end: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-08T19:45[America/Los_Angeles]')
}}
hideTimeZone />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start: parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
),
end: parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-08T19:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)
}}
hideTimeZone
/>
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
defaultValue={{
start:
parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
),
end:
parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-08T19:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)
}}
hideTimeZone
/>
Hour cycle#
By default, useDateRangePicker
displays times in either 12 or 24 hour hour format depending on the user's locale. However, this can be overridden using the hourCycle
prop if needed for a specific usecase. This example forces the DateRangePicker
to use 24-hour time, regardless of the locale.
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24} />
<DateRangePicker
label="Date range"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24} />
