Date Difference Calculator

Pick two dates to see the difference between them. Runs entirely in your browser.

ℹ️ How this works
  • The years/months/days breakdown is calendar-aware — it simulates adding whole months from the earlier date, clamping to the last day of a shorter month (e.g. Jan 31 + 1 month lands on Feb 28/29), so it never produces a negative or nonsensical component.
  • Runs entirely client-side — nothing here is ever sent anywhere. The JSON API below is a separate, opt-in endpoint for scripts.
💻 Show API usage example (cURL) 
curl -sS "https://devops.majbase.com/date-difference-calculator/api" \
    --data-urlencode 'date1=2024-01-31' \
    --data-urlencode 'date2=2024-03-01'

Returns {"years", "months", "days", "total_days", "total_weeks", "first_is_earlier", "same"}, or {"error": "..."} for an unparseable date.
