Hi, is there something in the Kotlin/Java world for interpreting dates like "today", "next wednesday", ... w.r.t. some context? E.g. in ruby there's the chronic gem https://github.com/mojombo/chronic that supports Chronic.parse('tomorrow') which returns 2024-04-24 (for today ;))

I've never used it but I've seen references to a java port of chronic: https://github.com/samtingleff/jchronic

quickly searching github, I also found the following repo which appears to be somebody trying to resurrect an older project: https://github.com/natty-parser/natty

another: https://github.com/zoho/hawking

Oh, these are great pointers. Thank you!
