show time between two dates javascript code example

Example 1: javascript difference between two dates

const date1 = new Date('7/13/2010');
const date2 = new Date('12/15/2010');
console.log(getDifferenceInDays(date1, date2));
console.log(getDifferenceInHours(date1, date2));
console.log(getDifferenceInMinutes(date1, date2));
console.log(getDifferenceInSeconds(date1, date2));

function getDifferenceInDays(date1, date2) {
  const diffInMs = Math.abs(date2 - date1);
  return diffInMs / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
}

function getDifferenceInHours(date1, date2) {
  const diffInMs = Math.abs(date2 - date1);
  return diffInMs / (1000 * 60 * 60);
}

function getDifferenceInMinutes(date1, date2) {
  const diffInMs = Math.abs(date2 - date1);
  return diffInMs / (1000 * 60);
}

function getDifferenceInSeconds(date1, date2) {
  const diffInMs = Math.abs(date2 - date1);
  return diffInMs / 1000;
}

Example 2: javascript difference between two dates

var date1 = new Date();    
 var date2 = new Date("2025/07/30 21:59:00");
  
showDiff(date1,date2);

function showDiff(date1, date2){

    var diff = (date2 - date1)/1000;
    diff = Math.abs(Math.floor(diff));

    var days = Math.floor(diff/(24*60*60));
    var leftSec = diff - days * 24*60*60;

    var hrs = Math.floor(leftSec/(60*60));
    var leftSec = leftSec - hrs * 60*60;

    var min = Math.floor(leftSec/(60));
    var leftSec = leftSec - min * 60;
	console.info("You have " + days + " days " + hrs + " hours " + min + " minutes and " + leftSec + " seconds");
   
    return {
        d: days,
        h: hrs,
        i: min,
        s: leftSec
    };
}
