I generally use PyQt which is one of two (the other being pyside) python
wrappers for the Qt libraries.

PyQt is the only one I know which currently supports Qt5+ so gets my vote.
There are loads of resources around - works well on all operating systems
(with most Qt5 having some focus on mobile). It comes with a ton of
utilities and a really nice GUI editor (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_Creator).

There are a lot of resources around and, as predicted, already has some
examples of date pickers:
