Problem:
The standard library fails during DST transitions, returning incorrect offsets when clocks change for daylight saving.
Solution:
Key benefits:
- DST-safe arithmetic with automatic offset adjustment
- Type safety prevents naive/aware datetime bugs
- Clean timezone conversions with .to_tz()
- Nanosecond precision for deltas and timestamps
- Pydantic integration for serialization
Problem:
Manually repositioning each label to avoid overlaps is tedious and time-consuming.
Solution:
All you need is to collect your text objects and call adjust_text() with optional arrow styling.
