DateTime Programming For Everyone. Everywhere.
summary
The project chooses nanosecond precision to match Oracle and capture high‑volume trading and scientific timestamps, and replaces chrono::duration’s template with boost::int128_t to achieve it; Howard Hinnant’s date and tz libraries provide IANA timezone support so timezone conversions work with DST rules; the team ships five common datetime types, implements a live preview for complex parse strings, and resolves over 10 years of user requests in one year.
