Example effect:
In HarmonyOS app development, a calendar component is fundamental for many scenarios such as check-in, booking, and schedule management. Although ArkTS does not provide a built-in full-featured calendar component, you can use basic components like Swiper and ForEach to create a high-performance, horizontally swipeable custom calendar. This article details the implementation ideas, core code, and best practices. All APIs and terminology refer to the Huawei Developer Official Documentation.
1. Implementation Ideas and Key Points
- Use the
Swipercomponent to load 3 months of calendars (previous, current, next) managed by theshowDatesarray. - Initially display the middle page (i.e., index=1), and set
.loop(true)for infinite swiping. - After swiping (
onChange), only update the data for the left and right months to avoid full UI refresh and improve performance. - Both the calendar header and content are rendered dynamically with
ForEach, supporting custom styles and click events.

3. Complete Component Structure
- Year/month switching, jump to current month, left/right arrows, date selection, calendar header, and calendar content are all customizable.
- The
dateHelperutility generates a two-dimensional array for the calendar, supporting placeholders and same-day checks.
4. Best Practices and Official Documentation
- Recommended reading: ArkTS UI Components Official Documentation and ArkTS Coding Style Guide.
- It is recommended to encapsulate the calendar as an independent component for reuse and maintenance.
- When swiping, only update necessary data to avoid full refresh.
- Code should include detailed comments, and key exceptions should be logged for troubleshooting.
