 Creating a calendar has a ton of options. These have reasonable defaults that are easy to adjust, too. The options are listed below.
 
-Option             | Description
--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-`appendTo`         | DOM element where the calendar will be appended to. Takes `'parent'` as the parent element
-`autoClose`        | When set to `true`, the calendar is auto-closed when picking a day _(or a time if `time: true` and `date: false`). A value of `'time'` will only auto-close the calendar when a time is picked.
-`autoHideOnBlur`   | Hides the calendar when focusing something other than the input field
-`autoHideOnClick`  | Hides the calendar when clicking away
-`date`             | The calendar shows days and allows you to navigate between months
-`dateValidator`    | Function to validate that a given date is considered valid. Receives a native `Date` parameter.
-`dayFormat`        | Format string used to display days on the calendar
-`initialValue`     | Value used to initialize calendar. Takes `string`, `Date`, or `moment`
-`inputFormat`      | Format string used for the input field as well as the results of `rome`
-`invalidate`       | Ensures the date is valid when the field is blurred
-`strictParse`      | Compares input strictly against `inputFormat`, and partial matches are discarded
-`max`              | Disallow dates past `max`. Takes `string`, `Date`, or `moment`
-`min`              | Disallow dates before `min`. Takes `string`, `Date`, or `moment`
-`monthFormat`      | Format string used by the calendar to display months and their year
-`monthsInCalendar` | How many months get rendered in the calendar
-`required`         | Is the field required or do you allow empty values?
-`styles`           | CSS classes applied to elements on the calendar
-`time`             | The calendar shows the current time and allows you to change it using a dropdown
-`timeFormat`       | Format string used to display the time on the calendar
-`timeInterval`     | Seconds between each option in the time dropdown
-`timeValidator`    | Function to validate that a given time is considered valid. Receives a native `Date` parameter.
-`weekdayFormat`    | Format used to display weekdays. Takes `min` _(Mo)_, `short` _(Mon)_, `long` _(Monday)_, or an array with seven strings of your choosing.
-`weekStart`        | Day considered the first of the week. Range: Sunday `0` - Saturday `6`

+`horizontalAlignment` | Defines the alignment of calendar with the `input` element: `left`, `center`, `right`
 
 Note that in the case of input fields, when `initialValue` isn't provided the initial value is inferred from `elem.value` instead. In the case of inline calendars, `new Date()` will be used as a default if none is provided.
