Calendar library for android app

Question

i am designing an app for iPhone and android app. When the app gets launched for the first time it hits an api and gets back a large database which is common for a year(365 days of events that get scheduled). In my app when the user hits a button the calendar gets opened to the current date showing the dates in a grid view. If the dates have any schedule they use to look in a green color and if no events it looks in other color. Likewise i have some other operations. in my iPhone app all the calendar view, dates color and events scheduling are done by a library.

In the same way is there any library for android apps, so that it will reduce my work a lot. Is there anything available like that. Please give me a suggestion..

Since this question is quite some time ago, probably you have found your solution. I share my solution here so maybe other can find it useful.

I wrote Caldroid library (https://github.com/roomorama/Caldroid) that supports rich features:

Embedded as a fragment or shown as dialog
Set min/max date. The date outside min/max range is marked as disabled
Set disabled dates
Select dates fromDate to toDate
Client can listen to various events when user interacts with Calendar
Customize look and feel

You can checkout documentation https://github.com/roomorama/Caldroid#custom-backgrounds-and-text-colors-for-different-dates and https://github.com/roomorama/Caldroid#client-can-customize-look-and-feel-of-almost-all-views – thomasdao Nov 26 '13 at 02:42
you have asked to do " If you see JAR mismatched error, replace your android-support-v4.jar to the jar inside Caldroid." what's the change on that libary. I'm using the Support-v4 for my app..Is this version is available in maven Repo? and how can i change the height and width of the Calender..can i make it smaller? – Sam Feb 13 '14 at 06:20
@Raghunandan please open an issue on github and add some code – thomasdao Nov 25 '14 at 09:23
@thomasdao the library looks promising but it is not maintained. And I tried to import in Android Studio. It is NOT RUNNING the sample application. – AkshayT Jun 16 '19 at 03:04
