Opinionated wrapper over the built-in datetime module. Exposes a subset of just the right functionality to avoid common gotchas with dates in Python.
Yo, these datetimes are sick!

Features
Robust, automated timezone handling.
ISO 8601-compliant timestamp strings.
Unix epoch seconds.
Only depends on Python standard library.
Uses built-in data types: datetime, float, str.
Driving Principles
A datetime object represents an instant, a particular point in time. A snapshot of the universe. It doesn’t matter what was the timezone, DST mode, the user’s calendar, nor their locale.
A datetime on its own isn’t human-readable. If you need to show it to the user, you need to provide the timezone or locale.
All datetime objects must be timezone-aware.
When in need of string timestamps, use ISO 8601 with milliseconds and Zulu time.
When in need of numerical timestamps, use a float for UNIX epoch seconds in UTC.
This must be easy to integrate with existing codebase. No custom data types over stdlib.
Inspired by the design choices of NSDate.
