## Default Value
If user hasn't picked a date, shows today's calendar by default. You can use `default-value` to set another date. Its value should be parsable by `new Date()`.
If type is `daterange`, `default-value` sets the left side calendar.

## Date Formats
Use `format` to control displayed text's format in the input box. Use `value-format` to control binding value's format.
By default, the component accepts and emits a `Date` object.
