Jenkins works reasonably well as a job scheduler. The UI is functional if not pretty, it is fairly easy to configure and use even for a large number of jobs, and the plugin ecosystem allows you to extend it in many ways without writing any code.

If the only way to get a decent cron is to run a full blown Jenkins server it is time I quit the tech industry.
It would be kinda nice if we could pull the job runner out as it’s own thing.
