Cron has been silently running the world’s Unix and Linux systems since the 1970s. It schedules tasks like log rotations, backups, and system updates using nothing more than a plain text file and a precise time expression. There is no splashy interface, just quiet reliability. Mastering cron means bending time to your will, whether you are automating daily tasks or executing timed scripts that keep an entire infrastructure humming.
