Tip of the Day

June 19th, 2013

I’ve only ever used Date.today and Time.now to get the current date and time. But for those of us concerned with global timezones (and who isn’t), we should really be using the .current method.

Date.current is a rails core extension that gets the current date in the set time zone.

Awesomesauce.
