Chronos focuses on providing immutable date/datetime objects.

Immutable objects help ensure that datetime objects aren't accidentally

modified keeping data more predictable.

# Installation

Installing with composer:

```

$ composer require cakephp/chronos

```

You can then use Chronos:

```php

modify('+2 hours');

// This will keep modifications

$date = new Chronos('2015-10-21 16:29:00');

$date = $date->modify('+2 hours');

```

# Calendar Dates

PHP only offers datetime objects as part of the native extensions. Chronos adds

a number of conveniences to the traditional DateTime object and introduces

a `ChronosDate` object. `ChronosDate` instances their time frozen to `00:00:00` and the timezone

set to the server default timezone. This makes them ideal when working with

calendar dates as the time components will always match.

```php

use Cake\Chronos\ChronosDate;

$today = new ChronosDate();

echo $today;

// Outputs '2015-10-21'

echo $today->modify('+3 hours');

// Outputs '2015-10-21'

```

Like instances of `Chronos`, `ChronosDate` objects are also *immutable*.
