MMM-Humanize-Duration

This a module for the MagicMirror.

This module converts an interval into human readable units.

Motivation

I just had a baby, and I wanted a geeky way to keep track of his exact age, so...

You can also use it to track any other past (or future) events!

Underneath, it's just a simple wrapper around HumanizeDuration.js
