# Date format

Sometimes an client requests that date is displayed in a unique format. This can be achieved via date format configuration option in the [webapp manifest](https://docs.kasko.io/kasko-frontend-documentation/getting-started/manifest).

> **Default date format:** `DD/MM/YYYY`

Example webapp manifest

```json
{
  "version": "1.0",
  "schema": {
    "config": {
      "date_format": "DD/MM/YYYY"
    }
  }
}
```

`date_format` accepts string values. Respective keywords are replaced with date values upon output. All other characters are left unchanged.
