Beschreibung

The current date-picker with quick select options has gotten ridiculously long. It looks quite bad on desktop and even worse on mobile.

Objective:

Refactor it to use a date-range picker with quick-pick options.

The ideal solution would use react-aria as a base and extend it with the extras we need. This is because we already extensively use this dependency. Pulling in a new dependency could also work, but we need to evaluate it carefully (i.e. does it significantly increase the bundle size? is the dependency maintained? etc.)

Inspiration:

react-aria date-range picker: https://react-aria.adobe.com/DateRangePicker

daterangepicker: http://www.daterangepicker.com

Please post a screenshot mockup of your proposed UI/UX before sending a PR so we can discuss it. We do not assign issues to specific people.

Research-Richtung
This issue involves refactoring the existing date picker to use a date range picker with quick select buttons. The suggested approach is to use react aria's DateRangePicker component and extend it with needed features. Before implementing, discuss UI/UX mockups in the issue. Evaluate potential new dependencies for bundle size and maintenance. Check the current code in the reports directory for the date picker component. The maintainers have provided examples and inspiration but require a mockup before PR.
