Seriously, this should be put in the std.datetime docs on the first page. It's a common operation that should not require reading through multiple non-trivially long doc pages and piecing it together yourself. Please file a bug against the docs if there isn't already one.

Thanks. It is definitely not easy to find. https://dlang.org/phobos/std_datetime_systime.html#.SysTime.timezone SysTime struct contains member fn timezone which will return the current settings' TZ ; you can then apply this TZ to other functions in std.datetime to transform datetimes to the TZ [of your choice].
