## About This Tool

Instantly find out what holiday falls on any date. This tool covers public holidays, bank holidays, optional holidays, and observances for over 100 countries and regions worldwide. Data is computed locally in your browser using the date-holidays library — no API calls, no server round-trips.

## Why Use This?

Large language models cannot reliably answer "what holiday is today" because they lack real-time access to global holiday calendars and their training data becomes stale. AI models may confuse similar holiday names, invent holidays that don't exist, or miss country-specific observances. This tool computes holidays mathematically using a comprehensive, locally-stored dataset.

## How It Works

1. Select a country or region from the dropdown2. Choose a date (defaults to today)3. Click "Find Holidays" to see all holidays for that date4. Use the type tabs to filter by category (public, bank, optional, observance)
