# Gregorian, Jalali & Hijri - Angular Timeline demo
Use the Angular Timeline with Gregorian, Jalali, or Hijri calendar systems — switch by locale to build scheduling interfaces for Persian. For Angular 22 and Ionic 8.

## Description
The timeline supports multiple calendar systems. You can control it with the [`calendarSystem`](https://mobiscroll.com/docs/angular/eventcalendar/api#localization-calendarSystem) setting, and it supports the following options:
- **Gregorian** - it is included by default
- **Jalali** - it is the default system of the Persian calendar and is included within the Farsi language pack
- **Hijri** - it is included in the Arabic language pack

## What this demo shows
- A desktop daily timeline where hours are arranged horizontally and a hierarchical resource tree arranged vertically on the left.
- **Calendar system picker** The left side of the timeline shows a `Pick a calendar system` label with three options, where Gregorian is selected by default and choosing another option (Jalali or Hijri) updates the calendar system.
- **Header navigation** The month and year label opens date navigation, while the previous and next arrows move between days and the Today button returns to the current date.
- **Day view** The strip below the header shows the selected days, with the current date highlighted. The timeline displays hourly columns from 12 AM to 12 PM.
- **Resources** Multiple resources are shown as separate timeline rows.
- **Current time** A vertical blue line with a time label marks the current time.
- **Hover behavior** Hovering over the time grid shows a time indicator that follows the cursor in 15-minute increments.
- **Event cards** Events are shown as colored cards with a left color stripe, a bold title, a description, and a bold time range.
- **Date positioning** Events are positioned by their assigned resource and exact date range.
- **Event interaction** Events highlight on hover and show drag and resize handles for repositioning or changing duration.
- **Event selection** Clicking an event selects and highlights it.
- **Event creation** New events can be created by double-clicking the timeline or by clicking and dragging across a time range.
- **Scrolling** The timeline supports horizontal and vertical scrolling for navigating through time and resources.
## Best for
- **Regional user experiences** Products that need to present dates in the calendar system users already rely on, such as Gregorian for international audiences, Jalali for Persian-speaking users, or Hijri for Arabic-speaking users.
- **Localized scheduling flows** Booking, planning, and event management interfaces where users need to browse months, review events, and select dates in a familiar calendar system.

### Template
```html
```
## Implementation notes
- Render three separate `Eventcalendar` instances on one page, each using `timeline: { type: 'day' }` and the same 6 resources (`id`, `name`, `color`).
- Load events once from `https://trial.mobiscroll.com/timeline-events/` via JSONP using `getJson(url, callback, 'jsonp')`. In the callback, share the same events array across all three instances: React/Angular/Vue assign it to the reactive state/property bound to each instance's `data` prop; for the imperative API (JS/jQuery), call `inst.setEvents(events)` on each of the three instances.
- **Gregorian instance** - no `calendarSystem` needed (Gregorian is the default). Pass `locale: localeEn` (or omit for the default).
- **Jalali instance** - pass `calendarSystem: jalaliCalendar` and `locale: localeFa`. `jalaliCalendar` and `localeFa` are imported from the Mobiscroll package.
- **Hijri instance** - pass `calendarSystem: hijriCalendar` and `locale: localeAr`. `hijriCalendar` and `localeAr` are imported from the Mobiscroll package.
- Wrap the page in a Mobiscroll `Page` component. Use a Mobiscroll grid (`mbsc-grid` / `mbsc-row`) with three equal columns (`mbsc-col-sm-12 mbsc-col-md-4`). Each column contains a `mbsc-form-group` with a `mbsc-form-group-title` label ("Gregorian calendar", "Jalali calendar", "Hijri calendar") above its `Eventcalendar` instance.
