Building a Neon Digital Clock with HTML, CSS & JavaScript
In this video, I'll show you how to build a modern digital clock with a glowing neon effect from scratch — using ONLY HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript!
What we're building:
✅ Real-time hours, minutes, and seconds
✅ Full today's date display
✅ Toggle between 12-hour and 24-hour format
✅ Glowing neon effect on the digits with a dark gradient background
✅ Smooth floating ambient glow blobs in the background
✅ Fully responsive for mobile
The project is split into 3 clean files (index.html, style.css, script.js). I'll walk through how to use setInterval for real-time updates, how CSS text-shadow creates that neon glow look, and how to build a smooth toggle switch for the time format — great if you want to level up your CSS animation and JavaScript timing skills.
