Loophook: Simpler Background Jobs

Hello HN! I have been a software engineer for a little while. Recently, when building software I've been really annoyed with scheduling cron style background jobs especially in a node environment. So, I built this little side project in the past few days and would love some thoughts and some feedback. Loophook runs hooks which can be scheduled using a cron string or a simple timestamp.
