+When specifying the regular expression, use a raw [string literal] (backticks) instead of an interpreted string literal (double quotes) to simplify the syntax. With an interpreted string literal you must escape backslashes.
+
+Go's regular expression package implements the [RE2 syntax]. The RE2 syntax is a subset of that accepted by [PCRE], roughly speaking, and with various [caveats]. Note that the RE2 `\C` escape sequence is not supported.

+Format a `time.Time` value based on [Go's reference time]:
+
+[Go's reference time]: https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants
+
+```text {copy=false}
+Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 MST 2006
+```
+
+Create a format string using these components:
+
+Description|Valid components
+:--|:--
+Year|`"2006" "06"`
+Month|`"Jan" "January" "01" "1"`
+Day of the week|`"Mon" "Monday"`
+Day of the month|`"2" "_2" "02"`
+Day of the year|`"__2" "002"`
+Hour|`"15" "3" "03"`
+Minute|`"4" "04"`
+Second|`"5" "05"`
+AM/PM mark|`"PM"`
+Time zone offsets|`"-0700" "-07:00" "-07" "-070000" "-07:00:00"`
+
+Replace the sign in the format string with a Z to print Z instead of an offset for the UTC zone.
+
+Description|Valid components
+:--|:--
+Time zone offsets|`"Z0700" "Z07:00" "Z07" "Z070000" "Z07:00:00"`
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ $t := "2023-01-27T23:44:58-08:00" }}
+{{ $t = time.AsTime $t }}
+{{ $t = $t.Format "Jan 02, 2006 3:04 PM Z07:00" }}
+
+{{ $t }} → Jan 27, 2023 11:44 PM -08:00
+```
+
+Strings such as `PST` and `CET` are not time zones. They are time zone _abbreviations_.
+
+Strings such as `-07:00` and `+01:00` are not time zones. They are time zone _offsets_.
+
+A time zone is a geographic area with the same local time. For example, the time zone abbreviated by `PST` and `PDT` (depending on Daylight Savings Time) is `America/Los_Angeles`.
