Bug Description
The Contributor Profile page currently allows users to select an invalid reporting date range where the Start Date is later than the End Date.
For example:
- Start Date: 20-Aug-2026
- End Date: 10-Aug-2026
Currently, the page accepts this invalid date range without showing any validation message and treats it as an empty reporting period.
This can be misleading because the user may think that the contributor had no activity during the selected period, instead of being informed that the selected date range is invalid.
Steps to Reproduce
- Go to the Contributor Profile page.
- Open the Reporting Window & Date Presets section.
- Set the Start Date to a date later than the End Date.
- For example, set Start Date to 20-Aug-2026 and End Date to 10-Aug-2026.
- Observe the contribution metrics and contribution table.
- The page displays 0 contributions, 0 pull requests, 0 issues, and 0 active repositories instead of showing a date validation message.
Logs and Screenshots
No console errors or application logs are produced for this issue.
Current Behaviour
The current UI treats the invalid date range as a valid empty reporting period.
Expected Behaviour
The page should clearly display a validation message such as:
"Invalid date range: Start date cannot be later than end date."
The invalid range should not be treated as a valid reporting period.

Application: OrgExplorer
Page: Contributor Profile
Reporting Date Range: Start Date later than End Date
