 You can customize the date picker in multiple ways:
 
-- `initialDate` sets the default date
-- `minimumDate` sets the minimum selectable date
-- `maximumDate` sets the maximum selectable date
-- `pickerMode` sets the date picker mode (`.date` or `time`)
-- `dateFormat` sets the date format for the visible label
+- `currentDate` sets the default date (optional)
+- `initialText` sets the default text if a date is not selected (optional)
+- `minimumDate` sets the minimum selectable date (optional)
+- `maximumDate` sets the maximum selectable date (optional)
+- `pickerMode` sets the date picker mode (`.date` or `time`) (optional)
+- `dateFormat` sets the date format for the visible label (optional)
 - `closeWhenSelectingDate` allows you to enable/disable closing after a date was picked
 - `closeAnimationDuration` controls the animation speed when closing the picker
 - `calendarIconIsHidden` controls if the calendar icon is hidden
 - `calendarIconSizeMultiplier` controls the multiplier of the aspect ratio of the calendar imageview
-
-You can change the margins (`left/right/top/bottomMargin`) of the container view

 There is also a callback for receiving the new picked date: `didChangeDate`
