I made this minisite so I wouldn't have to watch users write their own cron expressions in Val Town[1] during user onboarding calls. The worst part was that after they'd figure out the cron, then they'd forget to do the timezone conversion to UTC.

Every game and utility was filled with its own surprises; graphics I could edit, tables of strings to pore over, dialogs to rearrange, menus to customize, and so much more.
