Calendars have been used for centuries to track and organize time. The modern calendar system is based on the Gregorian calendar, introduced in 1582 to correct inaccuracies in the Julian calendar. Calendars help individuals and organizations plan events, schedules, and deadlines effectively. The Gregorian calendar, now widely used globally, has become an essential tool for time management and coordination in modern society.

This calendar application primarily serves as a visual representation of dates. It utilizes basic date calculations to determine the proper display of dates and handle month/year transitions. These calculations include:
1. Determining the number of days in each month, accounting for leap years in February.
2. Calculating the day of the week for the first day of each month.
3. Handling the transition between months and years when navigating forward or backward.
While these calculations are performed in the background, they are relatively simple and straightforward, focusing on providing an accurate and easy-to-use calendar interface.
