Component Types

As of R2 2020 version of the Kendo UI suite, the DatePicker widget introduces a new component type. It aims to enhance the existing rendering and deliver a fresh and modern look and feel.

By default, the DatePicker is initialized with the classic render mode. In order to set it to modern, configure the options of the widget as follows:

js

    $("#datepicker").kendoDatePicker({
        componentType:"modern"
    });

As a result, the appearance of the widget is alternated.
