How It Works

A cron expression consists of five fields separated by spaces: minute (0-59), hour (0-23), day of month (1-31), month (1-12), and day of week (0-6, where 0 is Sunday). Each field can contain a specific value, a wildcard (*) for "every," or an interval (*/n) for "every nth."

This visual builder lets you configure each field individually and immediately see the resulting cron expression along with a plain-English description. You can also use the preset buttons for common scheduling patterns like "every 5 minutes," "daily at midnight," or "weekdays at 9am."

Cron expressions are used in Unix/Linux systems, CI/CD pipelines, cloud schedulers, and many other automation tools to define recurring schedules.
