- Profit!
Because this is a module, it actually executes on each page load, meaning you can avoid the caching issues that sometimes arise from determining the current time using a template (i.e. {{#time:Y-m-d h:i:s|now}}, which returns "2024-10-31 03:17:47").
You can format its output using other templates or modules.
