The DatePicker widget is a Yii 2 wrapper for the [Bootstrap DatePicker plugin](http://eternicode.github.io/bootstrap-datepicker) with various enhancements. The plugin is a fork of Stefan Petre's DatePicker (of eyecon.ro), with improvements by @eternicode. The widget is specially styled for Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 4 for Yii 2 Framework. The widget allows graceful degradation to a normal HTML text input, if the browser does not support JQuery. The widget supports these markups:

* Simple Input Markup
* Component Markup - Addon Prepended
* Component Markup - Addon Appended
* Inline / Embedded Markup
* Date Range Markup (from and to dates)
* Solo Button Markup

> NOTE: This extension is a sub repo split of [yii2-widgets](https://github.com/kartik-v/yii2-widgets). The split has been done since 08-Nov-2014 to allow developers to install this specific widget in isolation if needed. One can also use the extension the previous way with the whole suite of [yii2-widgets](http://demos.krajee.com/widgets).
