Display Format and Picker Appearance
These properties only affect how the date is displayed in the UI. The full date is always stored in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ (e.g. 1999-01-01T8:00:00.000+05:00).
displayFormat determines how the date is presented in the field cell, you can pass any valid (unicode date format)[https://date-fns.org/v2.29.3/docs/format].
pickerAppearance sets the appearance of the react datepicker, the options available are dayAndTime, dayOnly, timeOnly, and monthOnly. By default, the datepicker will display dayOnly.
When only pickerAppearance is set, an equivalent format will be rendered in the date field cell. To overwrite this format, set displayFormat.
