💅 DateTime::Locale::nr_ZA(3)

okay bestie, so this is the Perl doc for DateTime::Locale::nr_ZA — that's the South Ndebele South Africa locale, aka nr-ZA — and it's literally just a big gorgeous show-and-tell of all the locale data this thing ships with. it was contributed by users (User Contributed Perl Documentation, periodt) and it's gonna walk you through every single example. grab a snack, there's a lot. 🍓

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

this pod file is basically a lookbook 📸 — it contains examples of the locale data available for the South Ndebele South Africa locale. every format style gets its own little photoshoot. let's go.

🌟 Strftime Patterns

`%c` (`%a %-e %b %Y %T %Z`) - date time format

and bestie, the rest of the strftime patterns are literally right there — there's so many more coming 🫶

…and that's the energy for the rest of the format tour 💅 Here's the tail end of the specifier list, with receipts so you can literally see the vibe check pass:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue %-e M02 2008 18:30:30 UTC
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri %-e M12 1995 09:05:02 UTC
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat %-e M09 -10 04:44:23 UTC

%x (%d/%m/%Y) — the date format, bestie. Day slash month slash year, that's the whole assignment:

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

%X (%T) — and here's the time format, keeping it iconic with the colon-colon situation:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23

Not me pointing out that the year -10 really said "no leading zero, we're being casual" in that %x output 🙈 That's literally what it gives you though — copy it, don't come for me.
