Some states have two zones. And one state (AZ) switches timezones.

This comment will probably be lost in the digital abyss butttttt I've used these snippets MANY times so this time I felt compelled to say thank you for making/providing these - saves a decent chunk of time for sure! The fact that you even thought to post this for others to use and speed up development shows character (thinking of others) sooooo much appreciated and you're a LEGEND!

thank you guys, keep it coming...

You can use:

function swap(json){
  var ret = {};
  for(var key in json){
    ret[json[key]] = key;
  }
  return ret;
}

Just in case someone needs a sorted enumeration:

  AK = 'AK',

Can anyone add time zones as well with states?

What is your use case as 13 states have multiple time zones?On Jan 5, 2023, at 6:20 AM, Qasim-bbits ***@***.***> wrote:Re: ***@***.*** commented on this gist.Can anyone add time zones as well with states?—Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub or unsubscribe.You are receiving this email because you commented on the thread.Triage notifications on the go with GitHub Mobile for iOS or Android.

There are 52 states and 6 time zones in US. One user is creating an event according to his time zone and other users can see that according to their time zones so I need to get user time zones according to his state.

I’m afraid ACPK is correct, timezones are quite a bit more complicated than you’re making it out to be.

If you take a peek into the IANA TZ database, you’ll see many, many timezones in play in the US alone. Not all of them are currently relevant (eg Indiana).

A breakdown of timezones by region worldwide can be seen here: http://efele.net/maps/tz/world/

Arizona, for instance, does not follow DST but the Navajo land inside of it does.

This also ignores the fact that many states have been trying to permanently set themselves to DST. This is much more likely to change in the near future than the US adding a new state, so caching such information in the same file could be problematic.

Thank you for this @mshafrir

Is this somewhere existing for the whole world?!

Yes, here.

Looking for exactly this! Thank you @mshafrir
