Research direction
The user requested Persian (Jalali) calendar support in react native calendar strip. Investigate the existing locale and date handling in the package, likely in files like `CalendarStrip.js` or `utils/date.js`. Consider using a library like `moment jalaali` or `date fns jalali` to convert dates. Check if any linked PRs or comments provide guidance. The main challenge is modifying the calendar logic to display the correct year, month, day and weekends for the Persian calendar while keeping the API consistent.
