Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Unix timestamp?expand_more
A Unix (or epoch) timestamp counts the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. It's a timezone-independent way to represent a specific moment in time, widely used in programming and databases.
Seconds or milliseconds — how do I know which?expand_more
A 10-digit number (like 1735689600) is typically seconds; a 13-digit number (like 1735689600000) is typically milliseconds. JavaScript's Date.now() returns milliseconds, while many server-side languages and Unix tools default to seconds.
Why does my local time differ from UTC?expand_more
A Unix timestamp represents a single, unambiguous moment — UTC and local time are just two different ways of displaying that same moment, offset by your timezone and any daylight saving adjustment.
