Fonctionnement
How does this tool work?
The engine calculates the clock-time duration and subtracts the configured break. Values are normalized before calculation to avoid ambiguities caused by input formats. Calendar operations work with structured dates and, when time zones are involved, IANA zones and the browser daylight-saving rules are used. Results are recalculated locally whenever an input changes, without sending your data to a server.
Use cases
Plan faster
Prepare a deadline, meeting or date series without manual arithmetic.
Check a calendar
Verify a gap, recurrence or conversion before copying it into your calendar.
Compare schedules
