History for this tool
The most recent data you entered in this tool, stored only in this browser.
Save what you type here, in this browser? Your work would go into this browser's local storage, so a refresh or a trip to another tool does not wipe it. You also get a short list of previous entries under the form, each one restorable with a click. Nothing is ever uploaded, and there is no account.
Being straight about the trade-off: anything kept there can be read by anyone who can use this browser profile, and by any script that later runs on this site. A tool page can hold a private key, a password or a signed token. Saving is convenient; it is not private.
About this tool
Read a five-field cron expression and see the next scheduled runs as real dates, in local time or UTC, with a relative label. Useful for checking that a schedule means what you think before saving it to a crontab.Questions
- How are day-of-month and weekday combined?
- This preview uses an OR between the day-of-month and weekday fields. That is useful to know, but its current logic can also list extra dates when one of those fields is
*and the other is restricted. For schedules like “weekdays only”, verify the dates using the cron implementation on your server rather than relying on this preview alone.
