How the widget keeps time
- The time is computed in the visitor's browser from their device clock and the browser's built-in copy of the IANA time zone database, so daylight saving changes are applied automatically for any zone.
- Because it relies on the visitor's device clock, a device that is set wrong will show the wrong time. Most phones and computers sync over the network and are accurate to well under a second.
- The widget is a static page: no cookies, no analytics and no requests after it loads.
- It scales to the iframe size, and
loading="lazy"stops it loading until the visitor scrolls near it.
The digits update on the second boundary rather than on a free-running timer, so a page with several digital clocks shows them changing together. The 12-hour format adds AM/PM; the date line uses the zone's local date, which can differ from the visitor's own near midnight.
