JavaScript Scheduler, or event calendar, is a fully featured event calendar component that helps users manage their time efficiently. It facilitates easy resource scheduling and the rescheduling of events or appointments through editor pop-ups, drag and drop, and resizing actions.
The Scheduler loads data on demand by default to reduce the transfer and load times. Proper field mapping is mandatory while binding Scheduler to data sources with different field names.
Bind data seamlessly with various local and remote data sources such as JSON, OData, WCF, and RESTful web services with the help of a data manager.
There are several different built-in view modes available: day, week, workweek, month, agenda, month-agenda, year, and timeline. With a variety of view-specific variables, you can customize each view.
Easily configure recurring events to repeat on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis with integrated recurrence options.
To group resources according to multiple factors, the Scheduler offers a wide range of flexible options. It also covers scheduling timelines and grouping appointments by resource and date.
Scheduler has a highly responsive layout and an optimized design for desktops, touch-screens, and smart phones. It works well on all mobile phones that use iOS, Android, or Windows OS.
Cutting edge design with 5+ built-in themes such as Fluent, Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, Material, Fabric, and more. Utilize the online Theme Studio tool to customize themes of Scheduler easily.
Enables users from different locales to use the Scheduler by formatting dates, currency, and numbering to suit their preferences.
Easily get started with the JavaScript Scheduler using a few simple lines of HTML and TSX code as demonstrated below. Also explore our JavaScript Scheduler Example that shows you how to render and configure the Scheduler in JavaScript.

});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');A wide variety of built-in view modes are available: day, week, workweek, month, agenda, month-agenda, year, and timeline. Easily configure each individual view with different, view-specific options.
Display appointments for a single day or across multiple days.
Display events and appointments on a single day or multiple days for an entire month.
Load events virtually and display them as a list in a sequential order grouped by day. An option exists to specify the number of days to load initially in the agenda view.
Display the calendar layout and the events of the currently selected date. A round indicator at the bottom of a date shows the presence of one or more events on that day.
Year view displays all the months of a particular year in a calendar view format. In that calendar view, dates containing events and appointments are highlighted with dots placed under the individual date. When you click on the date, the event pop-up will be displayed and the events will be listed.
JavaScript provides five built-in timeline views: timeline day, timeline week, timeline workweek, timeline month, and timeline year. Each view displays events accurately across a horizontal time axis for a single day or multiple days.
To provide better performance, timeline views load resources, events, and appointments virtually on every scroll action.
Easily configure each individual view mode with different calendar settings. For example, you can enable the grouping feature in month view and apply event templates in week view.
Display multiple days, weeks, and months by extending each view mode based on the provided interval count.
You can block specific time ranges on JavaScript Event Calendar to prevent the creation of events and appointments in that time slot.
With this feature enabled, users can create and edit appointments inline through a single click on the scheduler cells or on the existing appointment’s subject. Pressing Enter after the new subject text is typed in the inline text box will update and save the appointment appropriately.
The JavaScript Event Calendar provides clear, vibrant, exact representations of events and appointments across the Scheduler timeline, based on their assigned time duration.
There is built-in support for better event handling, such as easier appointment creation and editing using the default event editor or through intuitive drag-and-resize actions. In addition, you can also add custom data fields to both the events and resource data source.
Easily select multiple events at once by pressing and holding the Ctrl key while clicking on events. On mobile devices, do the same by tapping and holding an event, and continue selecting by single-tapping other events. After successfully selecting events, delete or reposition them simultaneously.
The customizable tooltip displays event information while the mouse pointer is hovering over the event. Do the same on mobile devices by tapping and holding an event.
Change the look and feel of JavaScript Scheduler events and appointments by customizing their default appearance and style using any HTML or CSS.
Regardless of the system time zone, the JavaScript Event Calendar supports setting the required time zone for the control itself, as well as events.
A built-in option has been added to the JavaScript Event Calendar to automatically increase the height of the rows in month and timeline views when new concurrent events or appointments are added.
Context menu integrated with JavaScript Scheduler opens when a cell or appointment is right-clicked.
Real-time appointment data accurately synchronizes with our JavaScript Scheduler.
Easily synchronize events between our JavaScript Event Calendar and Google or Outlook Calendar via the Google Calendar API or Microsoft Outlook’s object library.
Bidirectional data communication conveys the server-side appointment updates made on Scheduler to all the connected clients through SignalR.
The JavaScript Event Calendar inherits almost all the calendar-specific features, such as first day of the week and timescale.
Customize the first day of the week, which defaults to Sunday, as per the default locale. You can utilize this option for individual views, also.
Display the event scheduler layout with specific time durations by hiding the unwanted hours.
Use customizable timescale options to view a timeline of events clearly and set a different duration.
The active cells of the scheduler (displayed in white) visually represent the work days and working hours.
Indicate the current date with a highlighted date header. Mark accurately the current time on all views.
Hiding weekend days from the Scheduler allows you to display only working days across all views.
Display the week number of the current date range beside the date header in day, week, and workweek views. Also display the week number in the month view as the first column. The week number is determined by the first day of the week and week rules (first day or first full week, or first four day week).
The Scheduler control supports both 12-hour and 24-hour time formats.
Customize the appearance of any part of the Scheduler interface using HTML and CSS styles.
Change the default appearance of the header bar by adding any kind of CSS, custom text, or image.
A built-in client-side event allows the end users to customize any part of the Scheduler user interface.
Add custom items to the default header bar options. You can hide or show common header bar options.
Out-of-the-box template options allow you to easily customize the cells by adding any kind of text, image, or CSS.
Easily customize pop-ups that open when single-clicking on cells, events, or appointments with your own UI or template design.
The JavaScript Event Calendar offers a built-in method to open the default event editor window programmatically.
The modern and trendy UI design of the JavaScript Scheduler makes the user interactions simpler and more efficient.
Clicking or tapping on events displays their important details, such as subject and time, along with edit and delete options.
Click and drag the pointer over the Scheduler cells for multiple-cell selection. You can do the same with keyboard shortcuts.
Clicking on the text indicator (+n more) in month and timeline views will open an event container listing all the hidden event and appointment details of a day.
The JavaScript Scheduler provides an intuitive way to navigate back and forth among the date ranges using an inline calendar, and also to navigate between different view modes.
Many real-time applications use schedulers as an integral part, thus serving different purposes based on the project type. Some of the active applications are: Fare Calendar, Meeting Room Calendar, Doctor’s Appointment planner, Hotel Room reservation.
The JavaScript Scheduler allows users to export its events in two ways: as an Excel file or as an ICS file.
The JavaScript Scheduler allows you to export all its events to an Excel document by default. It also provides additional customization options to export custom event data collections.
The JavaScript Event Calendar supports exporting all its event data to iCal format, and it supports importing events from an iCal file into the Scheduler.
Developers can have full control over the UI and behavior of the event calendar through its built-in, developer-friendly APIs. It allows you to customize even the complex Scheduler functionalities with ease.

No, our 1,800+ components and frameworks for web, mobile, and desktop, including our JavaScript Scheduler, are not sold individually. They are only available as part of a team license. However, we have competitively priced the product, so it only costs a little bit more than what some other vendors charge for their Scheduler control alone. We have also found that, in our experience, our customers usually start off using one of our products and then expand to several products quickly, so we felt it was best to offer all 1,800+ components and frameworks for a subscription fee that starts at $395 per month for a team of 5 developers. Additionally, we might be able to offer discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our product specialists today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
No, this is a commercial product and requires a paid license. However, a free community license is also available for companies and individuals whose organizations have less than $1 million USD in annual gross revenue, 5 or fewer developers, and 10 or fewer total employees.
A good place to start would be our comprehensive getting started documentation.
Greatness—it’s one thing to say you have it, but it means more when others recognize it. Syncfusion is proud to hold the following industry awards.
