What is Unix Time?
Unix time (also known as Epoch time) is a system for describing a point in time. It is the number of seconds that have elapsed since the Unix epoch, minus leap seconds; the Unix epoch is 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970.
Seconds vs Milliseconds
Historically, Unix time was measured in seconds. However, most modern programming environments (like JavaScript/Java) use milliseconds for higher precision. This tool automatically detects both formats.
Y2K38 Problem
The 2038 problem occurs because 32-bit Unix timestamps will overflow on January 19, 2038. This tool uses 64-bit precision to ensure dates far into the future are handled correctly.
