Cron expressions are hard to read — so I built cronread

Short summary

cronread is a zero-dependency Node.js CLI tool that translates cron expressions into plain English and displays the next N scheduled run times directly in the terminal. Instead of switching tabs to visit crontab.guru, developers can run `npx cronread "*/15 9-17 * * 1-5"` for instant output. The tool fills a gap: existing npm cron packages are runtime schedulers, not expression explainers.
