JQuery and Rails Calendar Plugins

Question

Does anyone have any experience with the appointment scheduling calendar for ruby ​​on the rails app? Should I watch pure jQuery plugins instead? I am looking for something good to plan meetings.

Here are some resources I found:

• https://github.com/elevation/event_calendar
• http://railscasts.com/episodes/213-calendars?view=asciicast

List of several jquery:

Answer 1

I suggest you take a look at FullCalendar http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/

https://github.com/arshaw/fullcalendar

Well-documented, works great, perhaps the most popular Google Calendar, like a calendar. Written in jQuery and open source: MIT or GPLv2 license.

Integration with Rails is not complicated, you can see a few examples here:

Answer 2

In my case, the answer was to create the HTML calendar code so that clicking on the div time interval selects the time. It's not too difficult to do some CSS and HTML, as well as jQuery.
