date
A C++ date and time library extending <chrono> with calendar types, time zones, and multiple calendar systems.
What is date?
Date is a C++ library that extends the standard `<chrono>` header with comprehensive date and time functionality. It provides calendar types, time zone support, and multiple calendar systems to solve the problem of complex date manipulations and timezone conversions in C++. The library offers type-safe operations and seamless integration with existing chrono types.
C++ developers working on applications requiring robust date and time handling, such as scheduling systems, financial software, or international applications with timezone considerations.
Developers choose Date for its type safety, complete IANA timezone database support, and multiple calendar systems, all while maintaining compatibility with standard C++ chrono. Its header-only design (except timezone) and standardization into C++20 make it a reliable and future-proof choice.
