Humane Rails Forms
There's actually a lot of issues and PRs for Chronic at https://github.com/mojombo/chronic that could make it a more capable library and fix some of these issues.
- A declarative DSL for calendar events and scheduling
- Chronic: A pure Ruby natural language date parser

Safari's date-picker is the cause of 1/3 of our customer support issues
In my web apps, I make dates text boxes that can handle inputs like “next Thursday”, “Monday at 5p”, etc by running the inputs through https://github.com/mojombo/chronic
I like the idea of inputs being able to make sense of as wide of a variety or formats as possible.
For number inputs I’d like to build into Rails something that can handle basic math expressions. For example, a person can enter “120 / 2” in an input and get 60. This is useful for expense apps where you need to expense half of something.

Dte: A language for expressing and calculating date and time
Reminds me of the Ruby library chronic https://github.com/mojombo/chronic
It's pretty good at natural language interpretation of dates, and the basic "from today" calculations, but cool to also see here natural expressions to parse between dates.

After a few hours of research, my observations are: - **Recurrence** is simpler to use. - **ice_cube** is more popular and more powerful.

Recurring events, looking for recommendations
Hi I've got a project which requires normal one off events, as well as recurring events. Looking at the resources available it seems like there are really just three gems available(montrose, recurrence and ice_cube). Of the three I've had the best results with recurrence because it allows me to pass a hash of arguments to the schedule builder. As well as handling exceptions which montrose doesn't seem to offer.
What are some alternatives?
ice_cube - Ruby Date Recurrence Library - Allows easy creation of recurrence rules and fast querying
groupdate - The simplest way to group temporal data
time-lord - time-lord is a ruby gem that adds extra functionality to the time class.
yymmdd - Tiny DSL for idiomatic date parsing and formatting in Ruby
TZinfo - TZInfo - Ruby Timezone Library
ByStar - Lets you find ActiveRecord + Mongoid objects by year, month, fortnight, week and more!
business_time - Support for doing time math in business hours and days
fugit - time tools (cron, parsing, durations, ...) for Ruby, rufus-scheduler, and flor
