FAQ
What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds?
Unix seconds count whole seconds, while milliseconds count thousandths of a second. Many JavaScript APIs use milliseconds.
Does this use my local timezone?
Local time output and date input use your browser's local timezone. UTC and ISO output are timezone-independent.
