[boubaks]

It would be perfect to have also a year picker !

Seems like your use case is covered with this:

No, I wasnt looking for a select of a year inside the calendar.
But more just like the Month Picker but for years (https://reactdatepicker.com/#example-month-picker)

Makes sense. I was referring to "Selecting your birthday" as being solved.

In your case, perhaps simply making a dropdown of years to select could solve your issue, or a number input field with min and max values?
What would you expect from an implementation in this library?

I'm using this component with date format selected by the user.

The user could choose between MM/DD/YYYY, MM/YYYY and YYYY format.
It should be normal to him to have a datePicker organised differently for each format.

About the select, it's the solution i'm using now even I don't think it's the best solution ;)

This feature is interesting and needed

Adding an option showYearPicker in the same fashion as the existing showMonthYearPicker would definitely be a useful feature.
