Cron syntax, finally readable
Cron expressions pack a schedule into five fields — minute, hour, day-of-month, month and day-of-week — which is powerful but easy to get wrong. Type an expression and this tool translates it into a plain-English sentence like 'At every 15th minute' and breaks down each field, so you can confirm it does what you intend before deploying it.
Presets and next-run preview
Not sure of the syntax? Pick a common preset — every 5 minutes, hourly, daily at 9am, weekdays 9–5 — and tweak from there. A live preview lists the next five times the job will fire in your local time zone, catching mistakes instantly. Copy the finished expression with one click. Everything runs locally.
