Cron Sandbox
cron is a time based job scheduler in *nix systems that lets you run a given command at specified times. I just had to compose a chron entry, and found this Cron Sandbox that lets me enter in the values I'm trying to use for specifying the times to run the command (every fifteen minutes turned out to be
0,15,30,45 * * * *). It was really helpful, because I'm not very experienced with cron as I've only had to ever use it a couple of times. Once you set it up, it just keeps chugging along without needing much maintenance!
