Before we begin, ensure that you have a working Angular 15 application set up on your machine. Additionally, make sure you have the necessary dependencies installed, including Angular Material and its corresponding CSS styles.

 

To add Angular Material to your project, run the following command in your terminal:

npm install @angular/material@15 @angular/cdk@15

Check the below screenshot.

 

 

Import the required Angular Material modules in your application's module file (app.module.ts):

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

import { MatDatepickerModule } from '@angular/material/datepicker';

import { MatNativeDateModule } from '@angular/material/core';

import { MatFormFieldModule } from '@angular/material/form-field';

import { MatInputModule } from '@angular/material/input';

  

@NgModule({

   declarations: [

      AppComponent

   ],

   imports:      [

    BrowserModule, 

    BrowserAnimationsModule,

    MatDatepickerModule,

    MatNativeDateModule,

    MatFormFieldModule,

    MatInputModule 

  ],

  providers: [],

  bootstrap: [AppComponent]

})

export class AppModule { }

Ensure that you also import the necessary Angular Material CDK modules.

 

In your desired component template file, add the datepicker component:

src/app/app.component.html

<div class="container">
	<h1>How To Add Datepicker In Angular 15 Material - Websolutionstuff</h1>
	
	<mat-form-field>
	<input matInput [matDatepicker]="picker" placeholder="Choose a date">
	<mat-datepicker-toggle matSuffix [for]="picker"></mat-datepicker-toggle>
	<mat-datepicker #picker ></mat-datepicker>
	</mat-form-field>
</div>

Output:

 

 

Start the Angular development server using the ng serve command and open the app in your browser.

ng serve

 

By following this step-by-step guide, you have successfully added a datepicker component to your Angular 15 application using Angular Material. The datepicker component enhances user interactions and improves the overall user experience when working with date-related inputs.
