Yes, I know, UX is hard etc. etc., but even a little bit of googling will come up with  some core principles for date entry . And of these principles, the one that should stand above all (for me at least!) is that  you should not require users to enter special characters to format dates. Oh, if you want to show people a greyed-out  / , that’s fine, go for it. But  making  them enter it? Ugh!

For good or for bad, people tend to swap their phones out somewhat frequently. Ok, maybe not every year (cough), but you’re unlikely to find 5 year old phones out there. But theirPCs? Boy Howdy. Seriously, it’s not just that you can still find low-rez laptops for sale today, it’s that if you find somebody using a five year old PC,  it’s not even surprising! . And life gets even more entertaining when it comes to corporations, where they don’t just have geriatric computers, they even mandate fun stuff like “ Everything must work with IE11 ”. IE11! Which, the last time I checked, doesn’t support CSS Grids, PWA, and most other things that are —  finally!  — making for actually cool/usefu...
