À propos de Cron Expression Explainer
"0 30 2 ? * MON-FRI" means something precise, but few people can read cron in their heads. Paste any standard five-field expression and this tool explains each field, translates the whole schedule into a plain-English sentence, and lists the next times it will fire in your local time zone — so you can confirm a backup job or nightly build is scheduled exactly as intended before it goes live.
