Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 5-field and 6-field cron?
Standard cron has 5 fields (minute to day-of-week). Some systems like Spring add a 6th field for seconds at the start.
Does the parser handle timezones?
The parser shows times relative to your local browser timezone. Server-side cron runs in the server's configured timezone.
Is any data sent to a server?
No. All parsing runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded or stored.
Are named shortcuts like @daily supported?
Yes. Common shortcuts like @daily, @weekly, @monthly, @hourly, and @yearly are recognized and parsed.
