While looking around for datepicker libraries, I came across this helpful guide on how you can use native datepickers for most, if not all, required datepicker functionality. Sure, it may not be as flashy as the JS enhanced or framework alternatives, but still worth considering IMO.

Custom formatting and forcing 24h time (native defaults to locale) are two things that native falls short on.. I wish we could just use native elements.
