Do you want to add a stylish analog clock to your website? In this easy tutorial, we'll guide you through creating a beautiful analog clock with working hands using CSS and JavaScript. This clock not only shows the time but also adds a touch of elegance to your website.


The CSS Styles

The clock's appearance and layout are created using CSS. Here are some key CSS elements and properties used:

  • Flexbox for centering and aligning clock elements.

  • Various CSS properties for the clock hands, center, and markers.

  • CSS variables for customization.

  • Outlined ui to give a stylish look.


The JavaScript Function

To make the clock hands move in real-time, we use JavaScript. The updateTime function calculates the current time and updates the rotation of the clock hands accordingly. We also use setInterval to call this function every second.


Conclusion

This analog clock not only provides a functional timekeeping element but also adds a touch of sophistication to your website. You can further customize it to match your site's style by tweaking the CSS. It's a perfect addition to landing pages, event websites, or any place where you need to display the current time in a visually appealing way.

Feel free to experiment with different fonts, colors, and sizes to create a clock that complements your website's design. Now you have a beautiful and functional analog clock that's ready to enhance your web content.
