Hey, I am Ajink, and today in this blog, we’re going to create a digital clock using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. This simple yet effective digital clock will display the current time, providing a dynamic and interactive user experience.
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<title>Digital Clock</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="clock-container">
<div id="time"></div>
</div>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
HTML Code Explanation:
- The HTML structure consists of a container for the clock and a
divto display the current time.
CSS Code:
body {
margin: 0;
font-family: 'Arial', sans-serif;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
height: 100vh;
background-color: #f0f0f0;
}
.clock-container {
background-color: #fff;
box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
border-radius: 8px;
padding: 20px;
text-align: center;
}
#time {
font-size: 36px;
}
CSS Code Explanation:
- The CSS provides styling for the clock container and the displayed time.
JavaScript Code:
function updateTime() {
const timeElement = document.getElementById('time');
const now = new Date();
const hours = now.getHours().toString().padStart(2, '0');
const minutes = now.getMinutes().toString().padStart(2, '0');
const seconds = now.getSeconds().toString().padStart(2, '0');
const currentTime = `${hours}:${minutes}:${seconds}`;
timeElement.innerText = currentTime;
}
// Update the time every second
setInterval(updateTime, 1000);
// Initial update
updateTime();
JavaScript Code Explanation:
- The JavaScript code defines a function
updateTimeto get the current time and update the displayed time. - The
setIntervalfunction is used to callupdateTimeevery second, ensuring the clock is always showing the correct time.
Conclusion:
In this blog, we successfully created a digital clock using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The digital clock dynamically updates to display the current time, providing users with a real-time experience. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel at youtube.com/@ajink21 for more exciting tutorials.
