For ages, human society has relied heavily on timekeeping. Clocks have changed a lot over the years. At once, people used sundials for timekeeping. In this digital world, we see contemporary smartwatches. In this digital age, it is easier than ever to create an aesthetically pleasing and functional clock using online technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. In this blog post, we will create a real-time digital clock with HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript. There is a video tutorial below which will give you some idea about the snippet we are making.
Video Tutorial:
We hope you have watched the video tutorial. The HTML part of this snippet will contain the basic structure of the clock display. The CSS part will help to style the snippet to increase the visual appeal. The JavaScript functionality will update the time dynamically.
In the HTML part, we have a simple <div> element that will act as the container of the digital clock we are making. To give the clock a sleek, futuristic look we have given it a dark background. It will help to create a strong contrast. We gave it a neon-like glowing effect using CSS text shadow to make it visually striking. We have used CSS Flexbox property to align the clock perfectly at the center of the screen and gave a bold font to ensure readability. After the styling, it's time to make the clock functional. To retrieve the current time we used the date object of JavaScript. To make the clock two digits we used ('0' + value).slice(-2). The time will continuously update every second after we use setInterval() without any user interaction.
