Why Schedule Automations?

Set it and forget it

Running a script manually is great, but what if it could run itself?

**Examples of scheduled automations:** - Backup your files every night at 2am - Generate a weekly report every Monday morning - Clean up your downloads folder every Sunday - Check for new emails and process them every hour

**How scheduling works:** Your computer has a built-in scheduler (Task Scheduler on Windows, cron on Mac/Linux) that can run scripts at specific times - even while you sleep!
