How to use this tool

A Unix timestamp counts seconds or milliseconds since 1 January 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC. Select the unit explicitly; guessing from the number’s length can give the wrong date. For date-to-timestamp conversion, the chosen date and time are interpreted as UTC. Leap seconds are not represented separately by JavaScript dates.
