Date/Time string formats
What's the Problem?
When dealing with date or time objects, it is very common to translate that object into a readable string. For example, "09:35:10" or "08/04/2022 - 12:02". However, sometimes doing this is error-prone, like the difference between "dd.MM.yyyy" and "dd.mm.yyyy" in Java's DateTimeFormatter.
Solution/Idea
A UI that let's the user input a date format (using dropdowns and/or buttons) which converts that into a string that is used for formatting time in common languages, like C# and Java.
Alternatives
Another option would be letting the user select a language (if needed), then letting him input a string a seeing what would be printed for the current date (today).

I just came here to suggest this feature after opening Dev Toys and looking for it, but finding it nowhere.
Of course, opening PowerShell helped just as good, but I still would have expected it here.
