+#### Note on referential equality
+
+Due to Flash Calendar's architecture, it's important to make your date
+formatting functions stable. You should move them outside the component
+scope (preferred) or memoize them with `useCallback`. Refer to [Issue
+69](https://github.com/MarceloPrado/flash-calendar/issues/69) for more.
