How to learn creating a datepicker

I just would like to ask for some suggestions on how or where I could learn on how to create a datepicker in html without using bootstrap or any built/finished javascript and css. I would like to learn from scratch on how some developers created these.

The one that when you clicked on the textbox, the datepicker would appear under the textbox and then when I clicked on a specific date, it would generate automatically on the textbox with a default format. I would like to practice creating one for a birthday field.

Thanks a lot! :D

To create your own Datepicker first you need to understand the Javascript Date Functions This functions is what you'll be using for most of the time in date handling.

See this sample code I made, it's not near perfect but it get the jobs done if I'd say
