Explain what a cron schedule expression means in plain English.
minute  hour  day-of-month  month  day-of-week

Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server. Supports standard 5-field cron syntax (minute, hour, day-of-month, month, day-of-week) with *, ranges (1-5), steps (*/15), and lists (1,3,5). Next run times are computed in your browser's local timezone.

Standard 5-field cron syntax with *, ranges (1-5), steps (*/15), and lists (1,3,5) for minute, hour, day-of-month, month, and day-of-week.
