Frequently Asked Questions
Does the target date need to be in the future?
No. Earlier targets are labeled as days since the target date.
Does it count holidays?
No. It separates weekdays and weekends but does not apply country-specific holidays.
Why is the start-day toggle important?
A deadline or challenge may define the first date as day 1, while elapsed-time calculations normally count the gap from the start.
