Architecture Overview

Component Hierarchy

The main entry point is src/index.tsx which exports the DatePicker component. The component hierarchy flows as follows:

DatePicker (index.tsx) - Main component, class-based
├── PopperComponent (popper_component.tsx) - Positioned calendar container
│   ├── withFloating HOC (with_floating.tsx) - Floating UI integration
│   ├── Portal (portal.tsx) - Optional portal rendering
│   └── TabLoop (tab_loop.tsx) - Keyboard navigation wrapper
│       └── Calendar (calendar.tsx) - Core calendar logic
│           ├── ClickOutsideWrapper - Handles outside clicks
│           ├── Month/Year/Time components - Date selection UI
│           └── Various dropdowns for date navigation

Key Architectural Patterns

Positioning System: The datepicker uses @floating-ui/react (v0.27.15) for positioning the calendar relative to the input. The withFloating HOC wraps PopperComponent to provide positioning logic.

Date Utilities: All date manipulation goes through date_utils.ts, which wraps date-fns (v4.1.0). This provides a consistent API across the codebase and makes it easier to maintain date-related logic.

State Management: The main DatePicker component is class-based and manages state internally. Most child components are controlled components that receive props and callbacks.

Styling: SCSS source files live in src/stylesheets/. The build process generates multiple CSS outputs:

• Regular CSS: react-datepicker.css (dev) and react-datepicker.min.css (prod)
• CSS Modules: react-datepicker-cssmodules.css and react-datepicker.module.css

Build Output

Rollup (configured in rollup.config.mjs) generates multiple bundle formats in the dist/ directory:

• UMD: react-datepicker.js and react-datepicker.min.js (browser)
• CommonJS: index.js (Node/bundlers)
• ES Modules: index.es.js (modern bundlers)
• Types: index.d.ts (TypeScript definitions)

Testing Architecture

Tests use Jest with @testing-library/react and are located in src/test/. The test setup:

• Configuration: jest.config.js
• Setup file: src/test/index.ts
• Helper components: src/test/helper_components/
• Coverage is collected and reported to Codecov

Important for tests: Some components use ShadowDOM for testing. The shadow_root.tsx helper uses flushSync to ensure synchronous updates required by tests.

Floating UI Integration Notes

The codebase uses @floating-ui/react for positioning. Important: The Floating UI library requires refs and context to be accessed during render, which is by design. When fixing linting errors:

• Use eslint-disable comments for Floating UI ref accesses (e.g., popperProps.refs.setFloating, popperProps.context, arrowRef)
• These are not violations of React best practices—they're intentional library usage
• See popper_component.tsx and with_floating.tsx for examples

React Hooks Rules

This codebase uses eslint-plugin-react-hooks v7.0.1+ which has strict rules about:

• Ref access during render: Generally not allowed, but see Floating UI exception above
• setState in effects: Avoid calling setState directly in effects; use flushSync when synchronous updates are needed
• When refs must be updated based on props, do it in useEffect, not during render

Development Workflow

Local Development Setup (Full)

1. Install node >=16.0.0 and yarn >=4.6.x
2. yarn install from project root
3. yarn build from project root (generates dist/ directory)
4. yarn start to launch docs at http://localhost:5173
5. In a new terminal, run yarn build-dev to auto-rebuild on changes

Note: The docs-site uses a portal: dependency ("react-datepicker": "portal:../") which links to the parent project. Changes to the main package are reflected in the docs when you rebuild.

Alternative Setup with yarn link (from CONTRIBUTING.md)

If you need tighter integration during development:

1. Run yarn link from project root
2. Run cd docs-site && yarn link react-datepicker
3. Then follow steps above

Quick Development Workflow

After initial setup, when making changes:

• JS/TS changes: Changes auto-rebuild if yarn build-dev is running
• SCSS changes: Run yarn run css:dev && yarn run css:modules:dev

Pre-commit Hooks

The repo uses Husky with lint-staged. On commit:

• Prettier formats staged files automatically
• Files are automatically added to the commit (via git add in lint-staged config)

Dependencies

Core Runtime Dependencies

• react and react-dom (^16.9.0 || ^17 || ^18 || ^19) - peer dependencies
• date-fns (^4.1.0) - Date manipulation library
• @floating-ui/react (^0.27.15) - Positioning engine
• clsx (^2.1.1) - Conditional className utility

Important Dev Tools

• Build: Rollup with Babel and TypeScript plugins
• Testing: Jest, ts-jest, @testing-library/react, jest-axe
• Linting: ESLint 9, TypeScript ESLint, Stylelint
• Formatting: Prettier 3.4.2
• CSS: Sass 1.93.2

Bug Fix Workflow (TDD)

When fixing bugs, always follow Test-Driven Development:

1. Write the test first - Create a failing test that reproduces the bug
2. Confirm it fails - Run the test to verify it captures the broken behavior
3. Implement the fix - Make the minimal code change to fix the issue
4. Verify the test passes - Run the test again to confirm the fix works
5. Run full test suite - Ensure no regressions with yarn test:ci
6. Create a branch - git checkout -b fix/descriptive-branch-name
7. Commit the fix - Use a descriptive commit message referencing the issue (e.g., fix: description of fix\n\nFixes #123)
8. Push the branch - git push -u origin fix/descriptive-branch-name
9. Create a PR - Use gh pr create with a clear title and description that references the issue
10. Return to main - git checkout main to prepare for the next task

This ensures every bug fix has regression coverage and documents the expected behavior.

Code Conventions

• Prettier handles all code formatting - don't worry about tabs vs spaces
• ESLint enforces coding standards - run yarn lint before committing
• TypeScript strict mode - the codebase is fully typed
• Tests are required - add Jest tests for new functionality
• Accessibility matters - maintain ARIA attributes and keyboard navigation
