Right now I’m using a basic text input to allow the user to provide a start and end date for my app, and then I coerce the string into a date format in python. Is there any way to have bokeh use a type=“date” element instead of type=“text”?

Is it possible to change the "type" of the text input widget to date?
Hi,
There's nothing currently like that in the built in text input, but you could make a custom extension to do that:

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply. I’m something of a novice when it comes to programming (particularly python), but I’ll take a crack at it.
