  What if cron and systemd had a baby?

Project mention: Fcron Is the Best Cron | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-14

I was annoyed by cron/fcron limitations and figured systemd is the way go because of its flexibility and power, but also was annoyed about manually managing tons of unit files. So I wrote a tool with a config that looks kinda like a crontab, but uses systemd (or launchd on mac) behind the scenes: https://github.com/karlicoss/dron#what-does-it-do

E.g. a simplest job definition looks like this

  job(every(mins=10), 'ping https://beepb00p.xyz', unit_name='ping-beepb00p')
