Hi, think of it as a data grid I would say, with the date as a key to where to plot the data on the calendar. But it is very similar to a data grid, so if you have a table with a date column, you should be able to play around with it.  
This is an example of a booking app we are using to book parking spots:

Hi,  
Under Appearance and Style, you see you you can color the dates on the calendar and the rows in the grid below.  
The auto-created “date” is the key for each day to which you match your data set.
