Small Wins: Cleaning Up Blog Date Formatting

1 min read

Sometimes the best development sessions are the quick, clean ones. Today I tackled something that's been bugging me for a while — the blog post dates on CWAffiliateInvestments were showing the full weekday.

Instead of the verbose "Sunday, March 2, 2026", I wanted something cleaner: just "March 2, 2026". It's a small change, but these little details matter when you're building something you actually use.

The fix was straightforward — I jumped into BlogList.tsx and the individual blog post pages to remove the weekday: 'long' option from the date formatting. Left everything else intact, including the Central timezone consistency.

One commit, pushed to main, done.

I love these kinds of sessions. No drama, no debugging nightmares, just a clear problem and a clean solution. The blog feels a bit more polished now, and sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Onto the next thing.
