How to Detect User Timezone in JavaScript?
To detect the user timezone with the name of the timzone itself, use the Internationalization API. This gives the name of the Timezone in which the user and the browser is being worked on.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>Timezone</h1> <p id="test"></p> <script> document.getElementById("test").innerHTML = Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone; </script> </body> </html>
Output
Get the Timezone (Difference between UTC and local time)
Example
To get the timezone, use the getTimezoneOffset() in JavaScript. This method returns the time difference between UTC time and local time. The difference returned is in minutes.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>Timezone</h1> <p id="test"></p> <script> const dt = new Date(); let diffTZ = dt.getTimezoneOffset(); document.getElementById("test").innerHTML = diffTZ; </script> </body> </html>
