Customer Date Slicer Development

[nbs33]

Hi, 

I have a client that is replacing an old reporting system ( a custom dashboard built with JS). They like the functionality of their data slicer better than the defults in PBI. 

I know I can create the custom time period selection buttons but they they want to have the timeline so they can select at the granulatiry of month/year. 

I have used the Timeline slicer in the past but I have had a lot of issues with it and I don't like the look or functionality. They would like to make a custom slicer. 

I've searched to see if anyone has done this but haven't found may resources. Are their any resources you can point me to? Is it possible to use their same JS Library to create a custom slicer?

I'm new to custom visuals and have watched a MS Dev bootcamp but an still a novice. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
