Just Launched 🔮 Crono (A Programmatic Time-based Job Scheduler)

Last Sunday, I open sourced 🔮 Crono, a programmatic time-based job scheduler I have been working on for 2 years (and 400 commits).

With Crono, you can make your application do something in the future: send an HTTP request every morning at dawn, email your users on their birthday, call yourself in 15 minutes… all that and more in just 2 lines of code.

import crono
crono.call('+1 (555) 555-5555').after(minutes=15)

I made a “marketing” website to launch it and illustrate how you can use it to give your web application a sense of timing.

I would love your feedback!

    This looks really nice, i'll give it a shot this evening. I like your minimalistic website design. Specially like your logo. Did you make it yourself ?

      Thanks for your nice words! The “logo” is the SoftBank :crystal_ball: emoji (https://emojipedia.org/crystal-ball/). Let me know if I can help you getting started with Crono.

        @pranaysingh I should also mention that if you like that style, I open sourced the CSS: Screen. Feel free to use it.
