.NET MAUI Calendar Globalization

Globalization refers to developing an application in such a way that it works on the target device culture. This includes changes in the Calendar day names and first day of week.

The Telerik UI for .NET MAUI Calendar control supports globalization through the Culture property (of type System.Globalization.CultureInfo).

The following example demonstrates how to set the desired culture in the RadCalendar:

1. Define the RadCalendar in XAML:

<telerik:RadCalendar x:Name="calendar"
                     FirstDayOfWeek="Monday" />

2. Add the namespace:

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2022/xaml/maui"

3. Set the desired culture in the code-behind:

this.calendar.Culture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("ja-JP");

This is the result:

For a runnable example demonstrating how to configure the Calendar Culture, see the SDKBrowser Demo Application and go to the Calendar > Features category.
