chrome extension that converts timezone-labeled times on web pages to your local time.
what it does | install | usage | updates
what it does
localizer scans pages for times with timezone labels and quietly rewrites them to your local time. the page looks like it was always written for you.
built this because i was on claude's status page and it said "resolved at 11:49 UTC." what the fuck is a UTC.
install
npx localizer-ext # npmor
bunx localizer-ext # bunor
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zaydiscold/localizer/master/install.sh | bashor
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zaydiscold/localizer/master/install.sh | bashor
git clone https://github.com/zaydiscold/localizerthen in chrome:
- go to
chrome://extensions - turn on developer mode (top right)
- click load unpacked
- select the folder
usage
it just runs. every page, automatically. catches UTC, GMT, EST, PST, CST, MST, and like 20 other timezone abbreviations*. handles 11:49 UTC, 2:30 PM EST, 2026-03-02 14:00 GMT, all of it.
click the extension icon in the toolbar for an on/off toggle. that's the whole settings page.
note: watches dynamic page updates now, so status dashboards that load late content should still convert.
*EDT, CDT, MDT, PDT, AKST, AKDT, HST, AST, ADT, NST, NDT, CET, CEST, EET, EEST, WET, WEST, IST, JST, KST, AEST, AEDT, ACST, ACDT, AWST, NZST, NZDT. yes i looked up what all of these mean; none of them have cool magnetic anomalies like the Central African Republic.
