You show many holiays the day before, but don’t say erev. You show tu b'av when it is erev tu b'av for example. Can I change this?

Hi, thanks for the feedback!
In general, Jewish Holidays begin the evening before the date specified. This is because the Jewish day actually begins at sundown on the previous night. Sometimes, for clarity, the Erev holiday is also included to indicate that the holiday begins the evening before.
We choose to add the Erev for major holidays, but don't typically add Erev for a minor holiday like Tu B'Av.
