Angular Bootstrap Calendar
A port of the bootstrap calendar widget to AngularJS (no jQuery required!)
Overview
The Angular Bootstrap Calendar brings a streamlined, jQuery-free calendar experience to AngularJS applications. Designed to replicate the functionality and layout of the original jQuery bootstrap calendar, this plugin eliminates the overhead associated with loading jQuery for a single component. Although the project is unmaintained due to the shift in focus toward Angular 2 and beyond, it still serves as a useful asset for projects stuck on AngularJS versions from 1.3.x to 1.6.x.
While the plugin has reached its feature-complete status, users can freely fork and modify the codebase to suit their unique needs. As the community leans towards more modern frameworks and libraries, Angular Bootstrap Calendar stands as a testament to past development practices while also pointing users toward its successor, angular-calendar.
