  • elcron

    A cron emulator for Emacs

  • clon

    cl-schedule is a scheduling library in Common Lisp. (by jcguu95)

    • By the way, calling it a cron.el, is perhaps a misleading since people might expect it to be an interface to cron itself, instead an elisp implementation. You might wish to take a look at clon/cl-schedule that tries to do the same for CL.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • systemE

    🤣 A lightweight systemd replacement written in Emacs lisp 🤣

    • Cool otherwise, I had some thoughts that Emacs could be used as a cron replacement, but I was never sure it would be worth it to be honest. Systemd is probably the way to go. By the way, I remember there was also a SystemE, I have never tried it, so I don't know how good it is, I totally forgot it actually until now.
