## What it is
A PHP library for modeling, querying, and formatting a business's opening hours, including regular weekly schedules and date-based exceptions. It integrates with Carbon via cmixin/business-time for direct use on date objects.

## Use cases
- check if a store is open right now in php
- display weekly opening hours on a website
- query opening hours for a specific date with holiday exceptions
- format business hours per day for a shop
- determine if a datetime falls within business hours
- handle recurring holiday closures in a schedule

## When to choose
- you need to model and query business opening hours in PHP or Laravel
- you need exception dates like holidays on top of a weekly schedule
- you want to display 'open now' status on a website

## When to avoid
- you need full calendar or event scheduling beyond opening hours
- you're not working in PHP
- you need timezone-aware multi-location scheduling with complex rules

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: date-time, sdk
- domain: developer-tools, web-development
- platform: php
- tags: opening-hours, schedule, business-hours, calendar, spatie
