The mm/dd/yyyy is a fairly US-centric date format. Personally, when doing a lot of data entry where I want to manually plug in dates that format is very unintuitive and is hard to get in correctly 😅. It would be fantastic to be able to localize the date format.

I'd like to be able to change the date format also.

The date format is reliant on the user's locale on their machine.

See docs: https://docs.lubelogger.com/Installation/Troubleshooting#locale-issues

For Docker/Docker-like installations you will add the following environment variables: LANG and LC_ALL, see https://docs.lubelogger.com/Advanced/Environment%20Variables

For Linux standalone, run the command LANG=de_DE (German used for example) before ./CarCareTracker

For Windows standalone, the app should detect and use the machine's locale.

I think this needs to be more clear in the docs. It's written in the environment variables page and nowhere else (or at least I was not able to find it) and I was able to solve the issue for me after this issue.
