v5 planning

[Eonasdan]

This is just a placeholder for things we would like to accomplish in the next major release. We try to follow SemVer as:

• Major: Breaking changes.
• Minor: New features, but backwards compatible.
• Patch: Backwards compatible bug fixes only.

Please feel free to comment with additional ideas or requests

Features

• ViewDate/ViewMode time
• TZ support (maybe) in v4.17.42!

Bugs

Enhancements

• Move tooltip text to separate array in v4!
• Decouple picker from input field, allow widget to be placed on any element (button)

Breaking Changes

• FINALLY fix event namespacing
• change show today/clear/close button option names to be consistent
• depreciate nuget packages

Could we add a silent: true to any function that would emit an event? ex. .date(date, options)

[Eonasdan]

@tsjoberg not sure what you mean. Can you expound?

Add ability to show/hide the current day marker. Currently it only displays if useCurrent: true

If you want to take it a step further add the ability to mark other dates, with an event we can bind to, to provide additional info/data.

could the markers inherit the styling bootstrap's label modifier classes (which are limited to background-color)?

Glad to see you're taking requests.

• when linked pickers is used, the 2nd picker should automatically be filled with the value from the first. this will make it a lot easier to set the 2nd value relative to the 1st.
• add a close/OK button option.

@GiraffeSlacks

• while it doesn't do it automatically you can listen for the change event and set the date of the second picker
• the dev branch has a close button feature already.

thanks for the suggestions

Thanks.

the datepicker should be more responsive for usage on mobile devices. iam working on a PR for that

[balticSD]

Nice would be a responsive full width dock on small devices like this:
