## Installation

The Date Picker is built using a composition of the `<Popover />` and the `<Calendar />` components.

See installation instructions for the [Popover](/docs/components/aria/popover#installation) and the [Calendar](/docs/components/aria/calendar#installation) components.

## Usage

```tsx showLineNumbers title="components/example-date-picker.tsx"
"use client"

import * as React from "react"
import { getLocalTimeZone, type CalendarDate } from "@internationalized/date"
import { cn } from "cn"
import { Calendar as CalendarIcon } from "lucide-react"

import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import { Calendar } from "@/components/ui/calendar"
import { Popover, PopoverTrigger } from "@/components/ui/popover"

export function DatePickerDemo() {
  const [date, setDate] = React.useState<CalendarDate | null>(null)

  return (
    <PopoverTrigger>
      <Button
        variant="outline"
        data-empty={!date}
        className="justify-start text-left font-normal data-[empty=true]:text-muted-foreground"
      >
        <CalendarIcon />
        {date ? (
          date
            .toDate(getLocalTimeZone())
            .toLocaleDateString(undefined, { dateStyle: "long" })
        ) : (
          <span>Pick a date</span>
        )}
      </Button>
      <Popover className="w-auto p-0">
        <Calendar value={date} onChange={setDate} />
      </Popover>
    </PopoverTrigger>
  )
}
```
