Consider adding convenience to processing and outputting date and time

Open sakuraehikaru opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

  • We often have to write numerous helpers to process and output date and time strings
  • Server APIs also tend to require and return date formats inconsistently
  • Simple arithmetics on days, months, and years are also somewhat common right before, or in-between network requests, and we've had to use other libraries or write extra code just to do these
  • Setting, tracking, maintaining, and converting to the correct timezone where needed is often a loosely handled programming process (at least to me), so it'll be nice if Netable has a design that helps make this process more transparent and easier

We might be able to use property wrappers to handle this instead of including it in Netable
