Timestamp Microservice

Build a full stack JavaScript application that processes and returns Unix and UTC timestamps for given dates, similar to the FreeCodeCamp Timestamp Microservice project.

Features

• Timestamp Conversion:

  • Accepts a date string as a parameter and returns both Unix and UTC timestamps.

• Date Parsing:

  • Parses incoming date strings using new Date() assuming GMT dates.

• UI/UX:

  • Design a straightforward interface for entering dates and displaying timestamps.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: HTML, CSS (Bootstrap recommended), JavaScript (React or plain JS)
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js

Example Output

For a valid date string input, return:

{
  "unix": 1483228800000,
  "utc": "Sun, 01 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT"
}

Usage

• Access the deployed application and enter a date string to get its corresponding Unix and UTC timestamps.

Acknowledgements

• Built with guidance from the FreeCodeCamp Timestamp Microservice project.
