Changelog

[1.7.1] - 01 Apr 2021

Fixed

• Fix bug where .nextDate was returning incorrect dates, causing tasks to run continuously without delays, when running on Node.js v14.0.0 or greater. Bug was caused by the Intl.DateTimeFormat API returning '24:00:00' instead of '00:00:00' on Node.js > v14.0.0.
