Designed to cater to the diverse needs of online groups, this utility simplifies the process of scheduling events and announcements. By selecting a specific time in the tool, you can effortlessly generate markdown text that, when posted in Discord, automatically adjusts to display the corresponding time in each user's local timezone. This ensures clear communication and eliminates the confusion of time conversions, making it ideal for coordinating multiplayer gaming sessions, virtual meetings, or any group activities.
And I have build a simple convenient tool to helper us generating timestamp markdown snippets quicky: https://discordtimestampsgenerator.com/

You can use some 3rd-paty npm packages to convert the unix timestamp to do that. And I recommend dayjs because it is only 2KB when we just use it's core functions.

Last but no least, moment and date-fn also have similar functions. But I usually compare these similar packages in bundlephobia.com. And you can see the difference below:
