Usability

Intuitive Navigation

Clear Date Selection

Clicking or tapping on a date should provide immediate visual feedback.

Highlight Today's Date

Today's date should be highlighted or differentiated from other dates.

Visual Indicators

Important dates, events, or appointments should have distinct visual indicators.

Responsive Design

The calendar should be usable across different devices – from desktops to tablets to smartphones.

Tooltip on Hover

Displaying additional information about a date or event when a user hovers can provide clarity.

Drag and Drop Functionality

For advanced implementations, allowing users to drag and drop events can enhance the user experience.

Consistent UI

Ensure that the user interface remains consistent in terms of colors, fonts, and interactions.

Accessibility

Keyboard Navigation

Users should be able to navigate through dates and functions using just the keyboard.

Screen Reader Support

Important elements, like dates and events, should be readable by screen readers.

High Contrast Mode

Offer a high contrast mode for users with visual impairments. Avoid Reliance on Color Alone: Important information should not be conveyed by color alone. Use text or symbols alongside color.
