Convert Unix timestamps to human-readable time and back. Useful for developers working with time formats.
| Format | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Unix Timestamp | 1700000000 | Number of seconds (or milliseconds) since January 1, 1970 UTC. |
| ISO 8601 | 2025-08-11T14:30:00Z | International standard for date and time, easy to parse across languages. |
| RFC 2822 | Mon, 11 Aug 2025 14:30:00 +0000 | Common format in email headers and older internet protocols. |
// Unix Timestamp → ISO 8601
new Date(1700000000 * 1000).toISOString(); // "2023-11-14T06:13:20.000Z"
// ISO 8601 → Unix Timestamp
Math.floor(new Date("2025-08-11T14:30:00Z").getTime() / 1000); // 1754922600
// RFC 2822 → Unix Timestamp
Math.floor(new Date("Mon, 11 Aug 2025 14:30:00 +0000").getTime() / 1000); // 1754922600
