Frequently asked questions
What is a Unix timestamp?
Unix timestamp (epoch time) is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. It's a universal time representation used in programming, databases, and APIs.
Why do some timestamps have 13 digits?
10-digit timestamps are in seconds. 13-digit timestamps include milliseconds. JavaScript Date.now() returns milliseconds. Most databases store seconds. Check your system's requirements.
How do I handle timezones?
Unix timestamps are always in UTC. When converting to local time, the timezone offset is applied. Store timestamps in UTC and convert to local time only for display.
