Not actively maintained

I no longer have the time to work on this package so this is as good as abandoned.

I recommend the excellent https://github.com/dxillar/nepali-datetime package instead.

This repo and the PYPI package will still stay up but there will be no newer releases.

Features

• Convert Bikram Samwat dates to AD and vice versa in a few line of codes. Intended to be useful for Nepali software developers.
