Modern Digital Clock In jQuery

A modern-looking digital clock with date and day of week, created with jQuery, HTML, and CSS.

How to use it:

1. Code the HTML for the digital clock.

<div class="content">
  <div class="timeDiv">
    <span class="font-color" id="time"></span>
    <span class="font-color" id="sec"></span>
    <span class="font-color" id="med"></span>
  </div>
  <div class="dayDiv">
    <span class="font-color day">SUN</span>
    <span class="font-color day">MON</span>
    <span class="font-color day">TUE</span>
    <span class="font-color day">WED</span>
    <span class="font-color day">THU</span>
    <span class="font-color day">FRI</span>
    <span class="font-color day">SAT</span>
  </div>
  <span class="font-color" id="full-date"></span>
</div>

2. The necessary CSS styles.

.font-color{
  background: linear-gradient(to bottom,#2980b9,#2c3e50);
  -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
  background-clip: text;
  -webkit-background-clip: text;
}

.content div{
  padding: 5px 0;
}

.timeDiv{
  position: relative;
}

#time{
  text-shadow: 0 0 55px #2980b9;
  font-size: 4.5rem;
}

#med{
  position:absolute;
  top: 15px;
  right: 0;
}

.dayDiv{
  display: flex;
}

.dayDiv span{
  font-size: 0.9rem;
  opacity: 0.4;
  margin:0 4px;
}

3. The main JavaScript (jQuery script) to enable the digital clock.

<script src="/path/to/cdn/jquery.min.js"></script>
$(document).ready(function () {
  function currentTime() {
    var date = new Date();
    var day = date.getDay();
    var hour = date.getHours();
    var min = date.getMinutes();
    var sec = date.getSeconds();
    var month = date.getMonth();
    var currDate = date.getDate();
    var year = date.getFullYear();
    var monthName = [
      "January",
      "February",
      "March",
      "April",
      "May",
      "June",
      "July",
      "August",
      "September",
      "October",
      "November",
      "December",
    ];
    var showDay = $('.dayDiv span')
    var midDay= "AM"
    midDay = (hour>=12)? "PM":"AM";
    hour = (hour==0)?12:((hour<12)? hour:(hour-12));
    hour = updateTime(hour);
    min = updateTime(min);
    sec = updateTime(sec);
    currDate= updateTime(currDate);
    $("#time").html(`${hour}:${min}`);
    $("#sec").html(`${sec}`);
    $("#med").html(`${midDay}`);
    $("#full-date").html(`${monthName[month]} ${currDate} ${year}`);
    showDay.eq(day).css('opacity','1')
  }
  updateTime = function(x){
    if(x<10){ 
      return "0"+x
    }
    else{
      return x;
    }
  }
  setInterval(currentTime,1000);
});
