Set the First Day of the Week

The wijdatepager widget allows you to set first day of the week (from 0 to 6). For example, Sunday is 0, Monday is 1, and so on.. By default, the firstDayOfWeek option is set to 0 (Sunday).

Complete the following steps to set the first day of the week:

Create a new C1 ASP.NET MVC 5 Web Application (see Creating an MVC Classic Project).
Navigate to the Solution Explorer, expand the Shared folder inside the Views folder, and double-click _Layout to open the file.
Add the following markup within the <body> tags of the page, just after @RenderBody():
<div id="datepager"></div>
This markup will add content for a datepager widget to the page. In the next step, you'll initialize the datepager.
After the closing </div> tag you added in the previous step, enter the following jQuery script to initialize the wijdatepager widget and set the selectedDate option:
```
<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#datepager").wijdatepager({ firstDayOfWeek: 1 });
</script>
```
At run time the first day of the week will appear to be Monday.

What You've Accomplished

Press F5 to run the application, and notice that the first day of the week will appear to be Monday.
