Introduction

```

It requires PHP version 7.1 and supports PHP up to 7.2.

### Tests

Usage

$socket = FilipSedivy\NTP\Socket::create('europe.pool.ntp.org');
$datetime = FilipSedivy\NTP\Client::getDateTime($socket);

// Carbon library
echo $datetime->toDateTimeString();

// Alternatively DateTime functions
echo $datetime->format(...);
```
