If you’ve ever battled, this might help.

This article explains a free world time API that needs no accounts or keys, and it’s ready for get time by timezone browser fetch.

What I liked:

- Timezone + DST handled

- IP-based timezone detection endpoint

- quick start examples

Useful for frontend countdowns. Hope it helps.
