Display is highly customizable, with options to display or hide: * Hebrew date * Candle lighting time * Parsha HaShavuah/weekly Torah reading * Sunrise and/or sunset * Havdalah time * Earliest time for Plag haMincha * Latest time to say morning Shema Within those options, there are choices to show English or Hebrew, Ashkenazi or Sephardi transliterations, and multiple options for calculating times (GR''A, M''A, etc) This plugin makes two JSON calls to hebcal.com (one to get the Hebrew date and one for the weekly Torah reading).
