Get timezone from country code / city

Hi all,

I am doing a Stripe integration and I would like to send a scheduled email to the customer. It should be scheduled to a given time of the day, but in his timezone.

I have a country code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) and a city of the customer. Those can be the inputs of a function. His approximate timezone should be the output.

Any ideas where to look? Thanks a lot.

Check TzExtra and its TzExtra.countries_time_zones/1 function (it depends on Tz).

And GitHub - kimlai/tz_world: Resolve timezones from a location. ?
