## what it does

localizer scans pages for times with timezone labels and quietly rewrites them to your local time. the page looks like it was always written for you.

built this because i was on claude status page, "11:49 UTC." what the fuck is a UTC. also what the hell did those shows mean by 8/7 central who was this designed for.

## install

```bash
npx localizer-ext # npm
```

```bash
bunx localizer-ext # bun
```

```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zaydiscold/localizer/master/install.sh | bash
```

```bash
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zaydiscold/localizer/master/install.sh | bash
```

```bash
git clone https://github.com/zaydiscold/localizer
```

then in chrome:

1. go to `chrome://extensions`
2. turn on **developer mode** (top right)
3. click **load unpacked**
4. select the folder

## usage

it just runs. every page, automatically.

handles `11:49 UTC`, `2:30 PM EST`, `2026-03-02 14:00 GMT`. catches 30+ timezone abbreviations. doesn't ask questions.

toggle it on/off from the extension icon in the toolbar. that's the whole settings page.

note: watches dynamic page updates now, so status dashboards that load late content should still convert.

_{supported: UTC, GMT, EST, EDT, CST, CDT, MST, MDT, PST, PDT, AKST, AKDT, HST, AST, ADT, NST, NDT, CET, CEST, EET, EEST, WET, WEST, IST, JST, KST, AEST, AEDT, ACST, ACDT, AWST, NZST, NZDT. yes i looked up what all of these mean. none of them have cool magnetic anomalies like the Central African Republic.}
