DateTim...e::pt_CV(3)
💖 NAME 💖
Okay bestie, gather round — this is the manual page for DateTime::Locale::pt_CV, and it lives in section 3 of the Perl contributed docs (that's the (3) vibe, iykyk 🫶).
In one breath: DateTime::Locale::pt_CV — Locale data examples for the Portuguese Cape Verde (pt-CV) locale. That's the whole name, no cap ✨
🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸
So this pod file is literally just examples of the locale data that's available for the Portuguese Cape Verde locale. Not a vibe check on your code, a showcase of the data 💅 slay.
