An extremely usable and dynamic React timezone selector
The react-timezone-select component offers an innovative solution for selecting timezones in React applications, especially designed for user experience and flexibility. Unlike other timezone select components, it automatically adjusts selections for Daylight Savings Time (DST) and keeps the list concise—helping developers avoid overwhelming users with unnecessary options while still offering the functionality needed for projects that require timezone management.
With its ease of use and capability to utilize custom select components, this library stands out as a practical choice for applications needing accurate timezone representation without the common installation hassles associated with similar tools.
Automatic DST Adjustment: The component adjusts available timezone choices based on Daylight Savings Time, ensuring users always get accurate selections.
Concise Options List: Only around 24 timezone choices are presented, making it easier for users to navigate and select their preferred timezone without sifting through irrelevant options.
Customizable Select Component: Utilize the useTimezoneSelect hook to integrate your own select component if you prefer different styling or functionality instead of the default.
Default User Timezone: Set the initial selection to the user’s timezone automatically using the Intl API, enhancing user convenience right from the start.
Support for Custom Timezone Labels: Easily append or replace timezone options with your custom labels, enabling applications to cater to specific geographical or business needs.
Open for Contributions: The project encourages community involvement, allowing developers to contribute enhancements, bug fixes, or new features, which enriches the tool’s ecosystem.
MIT Licensed: The library is distributed under the MIT license, making it a flexible choice for personal and commercial projects.
