fullcalendar/fullcalendar-workspace v7.0.0-rc.0 on GitHub

🔈 Update! We have finally reached the release-candidate phase where no further code changes are expected. We will monitor for bug reports over the next week or two while improving the docs, restoring linting, updating the browser-support matrix, and improving the upgrade guide, including creating a className/HTML upgrade guide for those with advanced calendar styling.

Changes from v7.0.0-beta.4 -> v7.0.0-rc.0

⌚ Performance

Fixed unnecessary event rendering and calling of eventContent when unrelated events change (#3003, #7650)

✨ Features

Improve Bootstrap 5 theme color mode, use of semantic color vars (#7465) (added in v7.0.0-beta.3, documented here)

✅⏪ Resolved Regressions

Day cells do not expand to fit events in dayGridYear (#7852)
height:auto causes ResizeObserver warning in Safari (#7861)
Resource-TimeGrid event dragging/resizing, "select" event doesn't persist

🪲 Bugfixes

The moreLinkClick date is always UTC, not adjusted by timezone plugins (#7314)
TimeGrid "all-day" text is better aligned, better split across multiple lines

⚠️ Breaking Changes

Removed Angular 12 support
The moreLinkClick date will be adjusted to a timezone plugin's offset, no longer unconditionally UTC
Newlines in allDayText will be displayed as line breaks in TimeGrid
Users of @fullcalendar/icalendar must upgrade their ical.js peerDependency to v2 (#7734)
The weekNumbers:true setting no longer displays week numbers in certain cases:
- resourceTimeGridDay view, because x-axis header cell alongside resource names is reserved for a future label
- dayGridDay view, dayGridWeek view, or any dayGrid-based view with only one row
Minor markup-related changes
- Removed data-navlink attribute in favor of fc-navlink className
- Using role=link instead of <a> to avoid accidentally inheriting styles
- In resourceDayGrid-based views, and resourceTimeGrid-based views
  - When datesAboveResources:true, the header resource below the header dates have data-date attributes
  - When datesAboveResources:false, the header dates below the header resources have data-resource-id attributes

📜 License Change to Premium Packages

While the STANDARD FullCalendar packages have been, and always will be, licensed under the permissive MIT license, the PREMIUM packages have more complex licensing:

Application Type	Company Type	v6 Premium License
Closed-source	For-profit	Custom commercial license
Closed-source	Not-for-profit	Creative Commons non-commercial license
Open-source	For-profit	GPLv3 copyleft license
Open-source	Not-for-profit	GPLv3 copyleft license

In v7, AGPLv3 is replacing GPLv3 as the copyleft license used for open-source projects. If your project's frontend and backend are open-source and AGPLv3-compliant, use the following license key:

schedulerLicenseKey: 'AGPL-My-Frontend-And-Backend-Are-Open-Source'

We've discovered a few instances of for-profit companies using FullCalendar Premium in closed-source projects, claiming to be GPLv3-compliant via the SaaS loophole. By switching to AGPLv3, we are closing this loophole and forcing such companies to either purchase a commercial license or stay on v6.

If you are the author of a GPL'd SaaS project that uses FullCalendar Premium and are concerned that you cannot upgrade to v7 due to the license change, please consider the benefits of switching to AGPLv3 yourself.
