I'm trying to code a calendar page that highlights certain days with events on them. The calendar also needs to be able to disable certain dates from being clicked, such that the user is unable to select those dates. The designs of the calendar page are as follows:
I've looked for tutorials but was unable to find any that fits the requirements of my app, without using a library. Is there really no way to achieve this without the use of a library? And if I do have to use a library, how should I go about integrating it in this Xamarin application?
Any help or advice to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Your requirements can take time to implement, using a 3rd-party Library is what you might be looking for.
This library: XamForms.Controls.Calendar has some great controls as what I can see will suit your needs, over all it has a great documentation so give it a try!
Did you try the below link ?

I want to add to my application the ability for the user to create events at specific dates. I've looked around on the internet and on SO, and found out that android 2.3.3 does not have calendar, so I need to use a custom calendar. I've looked around and found some, but they don't support creating events. I've also read about CalendarProvider but it didn't work with the custom calendars. Can someone please recommend me an open-source custom calendar for android 2.3.3 that support creating events.
Thanks
EDIT: Or if there is some kind of tutorial on how I can make my own custom calendar that would be helpful too.

I would like to embed a calendar inside my android application... I have seen several open source application, but are not what I would like to have.
Does someone have any suggestion on how to embed it?
Or maybe a good application of a calendar to embed?
Thank you very much :)
Why not trigger the built-in calendar activities via Intents? Best of both worlds.
it seems android calendar api is not available. can you please give me some tips and tricks for creating a similar thing.just like creating events,meeting, birthday etc.. and also notification when the event occurs. and also layout should be similar to-our in-built calendar give me some ideas or hint about look and logic?
To send notifications, read creating status bar notifications.
To create layouts, read declaring layout, common layout objects, and hello GridView. There is an equivalent introductory tutorial for each layout type.
You can access the Calendar events through the Data API. However, the Android specific calendar APIs are not part of the public Android SDK. Thus, you could access them, but it is highly recommended that you do not since they are likely to change in future versions of the os.
