Unix Conversion
The tool converts the selected datetime into Unix timestamp seconds used by Discord formatting.
Format Generation
All supported Discord timestamp formats are generated from the same Unix timestamp value.
Client Side Execution
All logic runs entirely in the browser without API calls or server-side processing.
Copy Support
Each generated timestamp format includes a copy action for easy reuse in Discord messages.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tool ensure timestamps display correctly for users in different timezones?
Discord stores Unix time (UTC); each viewer's client renders it in their local timezone, so everyone sees the correct local time.
Which Discord timestamp formats are generated by this tool?
Short time (t), long time (T), short date (d), long date (D), short date/time (f), long date/time (F), and relative time (R).
Does this tool require any server-side processing or API calls?
No; all logic runs in the browser; no server or API is used.
Do relative timestamps update automatically as time passes?
Yes; Discord clients update relative timestamps (e.g. "2 hours ago") dynamically as time passes.
Is the copied output ready to paste directly into Discord messages?
Yes; each copied string is valid Discord markup you can paste into chat.
Is this timestamp generator completely free to use?
Yes; it runs entirely in the browser with no sign-in or usage limits.
