Answer 1

You can use methods of datepicker which are present in V1.0.0-rc.2.

defaultDate will set a default Date that will be shown in input-field of datepicker without even opening the picker.

instance.setDate() will select the date in datepicker when you'll open it.

Note- new Date(year, monthIndex [, day [, hours [, minutes [, seconds [, milliseconds]]]]]);

The argument monthIndex is 0-based. This means that January = 0 and December = 11
