Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ISO 8601 and RFC 3339?

RFC 3339 is a profile of ISO 8601 designed specifically for internet timestamps. It requires the full date and time with a UTC offset and disallows some optional ISO 8601 features like omitting dashes.

What is the correct format for JSON dates?

JSON has no native date type, but the convention (used by JSON.stringify) is ISO 8601 with milliseconds and Z suffix: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ.
