Hello reader, I am frontendforever. Nice to meet you again in this free code sharing website. In this post I am going to explain about Digital Clock Animation.
If you are new to this website, we recommend you to subscribe to our youtube channel and watch the videos. Ok lets dive into the code.
Early Clocks
Knowing the time and the day of the year is something we take for granted today, but it was much harder for our ancestors. There were numerous ways to tell the time before mechanical clocks were created in the 13th century.
The sundial was the earliest tool for determining the time of day. The invention of the sundial is unknown, however, it is known that it was utilized in ancient Iraq and Egypt. The Old Testament makes reference to them as well. Sundials were also employed by other ancient civilizations including the Greeks and Romans. Sundials were a prevalent method of telling the time until the early 19th century as they improved in accuracy over time.
Digital clock
As opposed to an analog clock, a digital clock shows the time digitally, that is, in numbers or other symbols.
Although digital clocks and electronic drives are frequently used interchangeably, the term "digital" only applies to the display, not the actual drive itself.
Neumorphism
Neumorphism is a relatively recent design fad and a phrase that has recently gained a lot of attention. Its minimalist and realistic-looking user interface is what gives it its distinctive aesthetic; hence, the moniker. Various design and development groups have been actively debating the trend since it was given its name in a UX Collective piece from December 2019, frequently with opposing viewpoints. On Twitter, Chris made fun of it. Adam made a generator for it online. The usability, accessibility, and usefulness of this design trend are being discussed by developers, designers, and UX experts.
If you need to understand about the code first you need to know about the Date() function in javascript.
Uses of Date function
Date.now()
Returns the numeric value corresponding to the current time—the number of milliseconds elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC, with leap seconds ignored.
Date.parse()
Parses a string representation of a date and returns the number of milliseconds since 1 January, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC, with leap seconds ignored.
Date.UTC()
Accepts the same parameters as the longest form of the constructor (i.e. 2 to 7) and returns the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC, with leap seconds ignored.
Date.prototype.getDate()
Returns the day of the month (1–31) for the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getDay()
Returns the day of the week (0–6) for the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getFullYear()
Returns the year (4 digits for 4-digit years) of the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getHours()
Returns the hour (0–23) in the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getMilliseconds()
Returns the milliseconds (0–999) in the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getMinutes()
Returns the minutes (0–59) in the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getMonth()
Returns the month (0–11) in the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getSeconds()
Returns the seconds (0–59) in the specified date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getTime()
Returns the numeric value of the specified date as the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. (Negative values are returned for prior times.)
Date.prototype.getUTCDate()
Returns the day (date) of the month (1–31) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCDay()
Returns the day of the week (0–6) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCFullYear()
Returns the year (4 digits for 4-digit years) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCMilliseconds()
Returns the milliseconds (0–999) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCMinutes()
Returns the minutes (0–59) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCMonth()
Returns the month (0–11) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCSeconds()
Returns the seconds (0–59) in the specified date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getYear()
Returns the year (usually 2–3 digits) in the specified date according to local time. Use getFullYear() instead.
