## Simple Rust library for time

- builds on top of std (almost exclusively `core`), chrono and time

- very simple and intuitive to use

- wraps some very useful functions that are usually buried deep in modules

- has extensive support for unusual epochs

- Fully supports without overflow, as the core data is stored as `u64`s, times since 01-01-1601, and up to, in my testing, "a+262143-01-01

## Features

### ntp

- Default: `true`

- includes: `Ntp` struct

## Which traits you need

```rust

// Basic functionality

use thetime::{System, Ntp, Time};

// Diff functions

use thetime::{System, Ntp, Time, TimeDiff};

// String direct strptime

use thetime::{System, Ntp, Time, StrTime};

// Timestamp int conversion

use thetime::{System, Ntp, Time, IntTime}

// Timezones

use thetime::Tz;

```

## Utilities provided

- full docs at [docs.rs/thetime](https://docs.rs/thetime)

### List

- NTP server pinging

- System time grabbing

- time diff functions

- string to time structs

- timestamps as integers to time structs

- strptime and strftime

- convienent `now` method in the root for easy access

- various epochs
