💖 `DateTime::Locale::oka_US` — part 1 of 2 🫶

okay bestie, welcome to the glow-up of the manual page for DateTime::Locale::oka_US — that's the User Contributed Perl Documentation section 3 page, in case you were wondering where the header line went (it's right here, folded in, cute, done 💅).

This is part 1, so hydrate, stretch, and don't you dare close the tab — more is coming.

✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::oka_US — locale data examples for the Okanagan United States (oka-US) locale. Literally that's the whole name section, and it ate. 🍓

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Okanagan United States locale. That's it, that's the description — it's giving "brief but confident," and honestly? Iconic. 👑

ngl the narrow ones are so tiny they're basically monogram initial necklaces 😭 and yes, T shows up twice (Tue and Thu) and S shows up twice (Sat and Sun) — that's not a typo, that's just how narrow rolls, bestie 💀

the way this locale just says M01 through M12 for wide and abbreviated... no month names, just numbers with an M in front. It's giving spreadsheet core and I respect it 🎀

bestie look at -0010-09-15T04:44:23 becoming -10 M09 15 — negative years are just built different 😭 also lowkey notify me that Long and Medium are identical here. Not a glitch, that's just the data.

see how Full and Long are the exact same, then Medium drops the UTC and Short drops the seconds? Character development. 🌸

Quarter vibes, but make it long — and yes, the output is literally identical to yQQQ here, which is iconic of it honestly 🎀

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

`yw-count-other` ('week' w 'of' Y)

Week number roll call, fully spelled out 🗓️

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

🫶 Miscellaneous

A couple of little one-liners before the main event:

Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes ⏰ (no AM/PM chaos here, we're clock-pilled)
Local first day of the week — 7 (Sun) 🌞 (Sunday girlies rise up)

✨ Strftime Patterns ✨

Okay so this is the part where the short codes get fully explained. Each one comes with its bracket expansion and the three sample timestamps, so you can see exactly what it spits out 💖

`%c` (`%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y`) — date time format

The whole shebang: weekday, month, day, full clock, year 🌈

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue M02  5 18:30:30 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri M12 22 09:05:02 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat M09 15 04:44:23 -10

Ngl the M02 / M12 / M09 bits look cursed but they're exactly what's on the page, so we're keeping them, no edits, periodt 💀

`%x` (`%m/%d/%y`) — date format

Just the date, slash-slash style, very US-core of it 🇺🇸

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

`%X` (`%H:%M:%S`) — time format

And just the clock, colon-colon, clean 🕕

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