Why on earth would you copy Cron's incomprehensible syntax? You're writing code in a statically typed language! You can make a nice type checked API that actually is understandable without having to use one of the many many crontab generator UIs.

Crazy API design!

Edit: seems like there is a WIP typed API but I still have no idea why you would lead with the terrible one...
