Form field that opens a dual-month DateRangePicker calendar in an overlay (auto by default: menu on desktop, bottom drawer on mobile).
Introduction
DateRangeField is a complete form control: a label, an input that displays the selected range, and a dual-month calendar that opens in an overlay (auto by default: menu on desktop, bottom drawer on mobile). It wraps FormField chrome around a native <input> and an inline DateRangePicker, so you get consistent layout, validation styling, and range selection without assembling those pieces yourself.
For a single date instead of a range, use DateField, which can also select a range via its range prop when you prefer a single-calendar UI.
Import
import { DateRangeField } from "@bridge-ui/vue/Components/DateRangeField";import { DateRangeField } from "@bridge-ui/react/Components/DateRangeField";Basic usage
Provide a label and placeholder. Bind the value with value/onChange in React or v-model in Vue—the value is a two-item tuple [start, end] | null. For uncontrolled usage with an initial value, use defaultValue in React or default-value in Vue. Clicking the field opens a menu with two calendars; selecting a start and end day commits the value and closes the menu.
Stored as a [start, end] tuple.

Form props
Standard form attributes are supported through inherited FormField props:
- required — shows a red asterisk on the label. Pair with the native required attribute when validating with HTML forms.
- disabled — prevents interaction and applies disabled styling to the field shell and input.
- readonly — keeps the value visible and focusable but not editable; the calendar menu does not open.
Use description for helper text below the field. When error is set, the description is hidden and errorMessage is shown instead.
Variants
Control the field shell appearance with the variant prop. Available variants: outline (default), filled, notched, stacked, and underlined.
Sizes
Control the field size with the size prop. Available sizes: 2xs, xs, sm, md (default), lg, xl, and 2xl.
Bounds
Constrain the selectable range with minDate and maxDate. Days outside the bounds are disabled on both calendar panels.
Selectable days limited to Aug 1–28, 2026.

Show footer
Set showFooter to add Cancel / Apply actions to the nested picker. The selection is a draft until Apply is pressed; Cancel discards it and closes. When unset, showFooter defaults to true for modal / drawer overlays (false for menu). A custom footer slot replaces Cancel / Apply: call apply() to commit and close, or cancel() to discard and close.
Selection is a draft on the calendar until Apply is pressed.

Orientation
Set orientation to vertical to stack the two calendar panels instead of showing them side by side—useful in narrow layouts. Default is horizontal.
Calendars stack vertically instead of side by side.

DateRangePicker
DateRangePicker is the inline dual-month calendar that DateRangeField opens in an overlay (auto by default: menu on desktop, bottom drawer on mobile). Use it directly when you need an always-visible range calendar without the FormField shell or menu behavior—for example, in a sidebar or a custom popover. Internally, it renders CalendarRange with a shared year/month header.
It supports the same value/onChange, minDate/maxDate, orientation, and showFooter props as DateRangeField, plus standalone-only props like color and disabled. The same footer slot replaces Cancel / Apply: apply() commits (and closes an overlay), cancel() discards.
import { DateRangePicker } from "@bridge-ui/vue/Components/DateRangePicker";import { DateRangePicker } from "@bridge-ui/react/Components/DateRangePicker";CalendarRange
CalendarRange is the underlying dual-month calendar used by DateRangePicker (and, in turn, DateRangeField). Use it directly when you need finer control—such as a controlled viewDate, hover-preview handling via previewDate/onPreviewDateChange, or custom aside content per panel—without the picker’s Cancel / Apply chrome.
import { CalendarRange } from "@bridge-ui/react/Components/CalendarRange";Overlay
Use the overlay prop to choose the picker shell: auto (default), menu, modal, or drawer. auto uses menu on desktop and a bottom drawer on mobile. When unset, showFooter defaults to true for modal / drawer overlays (false for menu). Apply commits and closes; Cancel discards and closes.
Validation
Set error and errorMessage to show invalid styling and an error message below the field. Use required to show a red asterisk on the label.
Select a valid range.

Accessibility
For the field to be accessible, the input must be linked to its label and helper or error text:
- The label is associated with the input via htmlFor / id, using controlId (auto-generated when omitted).
- description and errorMessage are linked through aria-describedby on the input.
- When error is true, the input receives aria-invalid="true".
- Calendar navigation follows standard keyboard interaction for grid widgets (arrow keys to move between days, Enter/Space to select) across both panels.
Provide a stable controlId when rendering client-only so labels associate correctly on first paint.
Anatomy
DateRangeField composes FormField around a native <input> and opens a DateRangePicker in an overlay (auto by default: menu on desktop, bottom drawer on mobile):
FormField (root)
├── Header — label, optional corner text, required indicator
├── Container — variant shell (outline, filled, …)
│ └── Input — read-only text input showing the formatted range
└── Footer — description (helper text) or error message
Menu (opened on click)
└── DateRangePicker — shared year/month header, two calendar panels
(horizontal or vertical), optionally with Cancel / Apply footerAPI
