-<p>When the <code>locale</code> attribute is set, the component automatically derives the correct date format for that region — no need to set <code>format</code> manually. For example, <code>locale="en-US"</code> produces <code>mm/dd/yyyy</code>, <code>locale="de-DE"</code> produces <code>dd.mm.yyyy</code>, and <code>locale="ja-JP"</code> produces <code>yyyy/mm/dd</code>.</p>
-<p>If <code>format</code> is explicitly set alongside <code>locale</code>, <code>format</code> always wins. Use this when a specific format is required regardless of region.</p>
-<p>If no <code>locale</code> attribute is set on the element, the component walks up the DOM looking for the nearest ancestor with a <code>data-locale</code> attribute and uses that value. If none is found, it defaults to <code>en-US</code>.</p>
-<auro-header level="4" id="monthNames">Month Names</auro-header>
-<p>The <code>monthNames</code> attribute accepts an array of 12 month name strings displayed in the calendar header. When <code>monthNames</code> is <strong>not</strong> set, the component automatically derives localized month names from the active <code>locale</code> (falling back to <code>en-US</code> if no locale is set).</p>
-<p>Use <code>monthNames</code> only when you need to override the locale-derived names — for example, to supply translated names that differ from the browser's built-in <code>Intl</code> output, or to support a locale the browser does not recognize.</p>
