Dates are weired. E.g American dates begin with month.
@pola.rs makes it easy to change the way your dates look, depending on the audience.
Here's short and long text date formats. You can do more!

Best for dealing with API data or web requests in JSON.

What if you wanted to round time the way round decimal numbers? Well, sort of
Here, I use @pola.rs to scan a 10 minute interval and make the value in between same as the lower bound. So minutes between 0 and 10 become 0, minutes between 10 and 20 become 10 etc.

In @pola.rs, it's very easy to make the first letter of each word a capital letter.
Here, I properly punctuate the book titles of some of my favorite authors.

When you have timeseries data, @pola.rs has a special type of grouping that lets you be a lot more granular in your grouping.
Here, we see the total power usage every 5 hours and 30 minutes. Now that's granular!
