Colored Cell Backgrounds

Color the background of the days with the colors option. You can specify backgrounds as exact dates, ranges or set up recurring rules. The recurring object works the same way as for the events.

Use the onPageLoading lifecycle event to color backgrounds runtime. You can learn about lifecycle events and places where to drop logic to customize the experience.
