✨ NAME ✨

So this is DateTime::Locale::en_SX — part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3 of the manual (DateTim...e::en_SX(3), bestie, the truncation is literally just how it prints). It's the locale data examples for the English Sint Maarten (en-SX) locale. Like, the whole personality of how en-SX formats dates and times, frozen in a pod file. 🏝️

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this pod file is literally just examples of the locale data available for the English Sint Maarten locale. That's it. That's the whole job. It's a show-and-tell, not a how-to. 🎀

Friendly heads up from the data itself: en-SX goes day/month/year, so 05/02/2008 is the 5th of February. Do not come for me if you read it US-style, that's a you problem. 😭
