Setting the Value, Min, and Max dates
The Calendar component provides an option to select a date within a specified range by defining the Min and Max properties. You can also set a date value within a specific range using the Value property. For more information, refer to the Date Range section. Min and Max are inclusive boundaries; out-of-range dates are disabled.
Here, the Calendar allows selecting a date from the 5th through the 27th of the current month. TValue specifies the type of the Calendar component.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars
<SfCalendar TValue="DateTime" Min='@MinDate' Value='@DateValue' Max='@MaxDate'></SfCalendar>
@code
{
public DateTime MinDate {get;set;} = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 05);
public DateTime MaxDate {get;set;} = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 27);
public DateTime DateValue {get;set;} = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, DateTime.Now.Month, 15);
}
