Creating the Vuetify Datepicker Component

First, let's take a look at the code that defines the Vuetify Datepicker component within a Vue.js application.

Setting the Current Date in a Vuetify Datepicker

<v-card class="text-center">
    <h3>Vuetify Set Current Date in Datepicker</h3>
    <v-card-text>
        <v-date-picker v-model="date" color="red lighten-3"></v-date-picker>
        <p>Selected Date : {{date}}</p>
    </v-card-text>
</v-card>

Run

This code showcases the Vuetify Datepicker within a Vuetify card. The v-model directive is used to bind the Datepicker's selected date to the "date" property, and the selected date is displayed beneath the Datepicker.

JavaScript Logic

To set the initial date for the Datepicker and configure the Vue.js application, you need to incorporate JavaScript logic. Here's the code responsible for initializing the Datepicker with the current date and configuring the Vue application:

<script>
    new Vue({
        el: '#app',
        vuetify: new Vuetify(),
        data: () => ({
            date: new Date().toISOString().substr(0, 10),

        }),
    })
</script>

This JavaScript code creates a new Vue instance, specifies the application's root element (el), and sets up Vuetify. The data function initializes the "date" property with the current date, ensuring that the Datepicker displays the current date as the default selection when the Vue application loads.
