Discord Timestamp Generator
Generate Discord timestamp markdown (<t:UNIX:R> and friends) for any date and time. All seven Discord timestamp formats are rendered live, with a preview of how the message will appear in each viewer's local timezone. Click any card to copy the markdown, paste it into a Discord message, and watch it auto-convert.
How to use

Common use cases
- Schedule events in Discord servers across multiple timezones without doing the mental math.
- Embed expiry/countdown times in announcements that update live for each viewer.
- Log moderation actions with timezone-correct timestamps that every moderator sees locally.
- Send meeting invites that auto-convert to each participant's local time.
Limitations
- Discord timestamps render in the viewer's locale and timezone — the preview here is what you would see. Other viewers may see different formatting.
- The relative format (
:R) recalculates on every render, so "in 2 hours" eventually becomes "2 hours ago". - The datetime-local input uses seconds-resolution; sub-second timestamps aren't supported.
- UNIX timestamps are seconds since 1970-01-01 UTC. Dates before ~1902 or after ~2038 may behave oddly on 32-bit systems.
