Converting timestamps to readable dates is fundamental when working with APIs, databases, and time-based data in web applications. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve implemented timestamp conversion in countless dashboard components, data tables, and real-time monitoring systems. From my expertise, the most straightforward and reliable solution is to pass the timestamp directly to the new Date() constructor. This approach works with both Unix timestamps (seconds) and JavaScript timestamps (milliseconds) with proper conversion.
