Timestamp Microservice | FreeCodeCamp

In this tutorial, we will be building a Node.js API that can convert dates into Unix timestamps and UTC format. Our API will pass all the necessary tests, including handling valid and invalid date strings, and returning the current time if no date parameter is provided.

We will be using the new Date(date_string) function in JavaScript to parse the input date string and convert it into a Unix timestamp and UTC format. We will also be using the Express.js framework to handle HTTP requests and responses.

Throughout the tutorial, we will go over each of the requirements in the testing suite and show you how to implement them in your own project. By the end of this video, you will have a fully functional Node.js API that can handle date conversions with ease. Thanks for watching and have a great day!
