# luatz

A lua library for time and date manipulation.

Features include:

  - Normalisation of broken down date objects

	  - allows for complex time/date manipulation logic e.g. "What day is it in 2 days, 5 hours from now?"

  - Conversion between locations (time zones) using your local [zoneinfo](https://www.iana.org/time-zones) database.

  - `strftime` style formatting
