Chakra-UI x React-datepicker

Chakra-UI x React-datepicker.md

Tiny wrapper component for React-Datepicker to stylistically fit with Chakra-UI 1.x.

<DatePicker selectedDate={myDate} onChange={(d) => console.log(d)} />

Clearable version:

<DatePicker selectedDate={myDate} onChange={(d) => console.log(d)} isClearable={true} />

The HTMLAttributes interface is included to support passing additional properties like id, className, aria-*, etc., for example:

<FormControl>
  <FormLabel htmlFor="published-date">Published Date</FormLabel>
  <DatePicker
    id="published-date"
    selectedDate={publishedDate}
    onChange={onChange}
    showPopperArrow={true}
  />
  <FormHelperText>Date this widget was published</FormHelperText>
</FormControl>

@yovany-lg Thank you this was really helpful and easier to maintain probably
In my input I just passed all the props directly to make it shorter, I don't know if it's a good practice
const customDateInput = (props, ref) => <Input ref={ref} {...props} />;

This is great work. Appreciate it.
