Recipes — practical forms of the schedules long said to be unwritable

Translated from the canonical Japanese page recipes/README.md. The source_sha above records the source revision; a consistency check flags this page when the Japanese original changes.

Schedule requirements that cron, Quartz, and iCalendar RRULE have long been said to be unable to express, presented as one page per requirement. Each page runs “what happens today (with sources) → the Kairos expression (execution-verified) → try it in your browser” — the answer first, the background after.

Page Requirement
Last day of the month cron’s most common stumbling block, up to the last business day
Easter The canonical movable feast RRULE cannot express — pure arithmetic, zero data
4-4-5 fiscal calendar A calendar with no “months”; the 53rd-week rule falls out of the definition
Nearest weekday to the 15th The general form of Quartz 15W, extendable to holidays
