Time Zone Info API
Introduction
Our Time Zone Info API is a potent yet straightforward tool that provides in-depth active IANA time zone information, including daylight saving time adjustments if relevant. Additionally, it returns the current local time by default, and if given a UTC reference time, it automatically performs time zone conversion for you.
