I've updated the gist with the latest version of CalendarView I use in my app with enabled date generation caching and conforming to Equatable for reducing the updates of the view.

@Plus1XP i just want to similarly and every selected date List will refresh. Im getting error for PersistenceController and Entry
please help me to solve

I tried to get this all working with the new .scrollPosition(initialAnchor: .bottom) in iOS 17.... very weird performance

@simbo64 did you try EquatableCalendarView?

@mecid yes I took the latest gist code above, wrapped the EquatableCalendarView in a ScrollView and added the modifier…

• Should also say, Date interval is set for 1 year of data

Thanks for sharing this gist and to others for contributing to it. I have been working on a version with a fullscreen calendar view that is in a scrollview. Still need to implement the scrollview delegates so I can add months above and below as the user scrolls.

@basememara for your month-traversing implementation is there a way to retain the selected date when switching to another month? as it stands it updates selected date to the same day in the month that is moved to.

Hi you guys.
Do you know how I can draw a background like image below?

thank you @mecid for this gist,

I even built an Calendar app using your component

https://github.com/vinhnx/Clendar

Thank you for sharing. It's changed my mindset about my calendar before. I had to think about the calendar, it's faster if you use the library
But with swiftui, it's more flexible. It doesn't take as much time as I thought

• I personally think it should become a repository for more contributions, updates, and migration. Wait for it.
  @mecid

From the idea of this gist. I had created an example for a Calendar that can be customized more. Thank you.
Hope this helps someone.

@mecid, @filimo, @funkenstrahlen How can I enable horizontal scrolling for this custom table calendar? Currently, when I scroll horizontally, it navigates to the next or previous month. I've been searching for a solution so far. If anyone knows the answer, please share it with me. Thank you.

@mecid, @basememara, @iletai, @acegreen How I can make Monday to come first instead of Sunday

Just change first week date of your calendar.

@AbdullohBahromjonov, it depends on your calendar preferences. So, if in your phone settings, the week starts on Monday, then it will be the same here.

thank you!
But I have another issue here. I am using EnvironmentObject to make changes on the view but the calendar is not displaying changes instantly, it displays changes after I some random day on the calendar.
Can someone help me with this?
