🌸 the rest of the date patterns (no crumbs left) 🌸

yQQQ (QQQ y) — quarter, short and sweet, flipped so the quarter goes first:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = T1 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = T4 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = T3 -10

yQQQQ (QQQQ y) — the full-glam quarter name, also quarter-first:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 1er trimestre 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 4e trimestre 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 3e trimestre -10

yw-count-one ('semaine' w 'de' Y) — week number, singular-flavoured, all spelled out with 'semaine', w, 'de', Y:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = semaine 6 de 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = semaine 51 de 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = semaine 37 de -10

yw-count-other ('semaine' w 'de' Y) — the "other" plural bucket, and honestly bestie it renders exactly the same as the one above, that's just how French rolls 💅:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = semaine 6 de 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = semaine 51 de 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = semaine 37 de -10

🫶 Miscellaneous (the lil' settings corner)

Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes ✨ (no AM/PM chaos here, we're built different)

Local first day of the week — 1 (lundi) 🗓️

💫 Strftime Patterns (the classic hits, remixed)

%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) — date time format, the whole vibe in one string:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = mar. févr.  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = ven. déc. 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = sam. sept. 15 04:44:23 -10

%x (%m/%d/%y) — date format, nice and compact:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10
