The project and its methods
About Clock Garden
Clock Garden is an independent web project built and maintained by Jacho. It provides a device clock, world clock and ticket website time tool without an account. Living Clock adds scenery that changes with the time of day.
Time sources
The clock and World Clock use device time and browser time-zone rules. Ticket time estimates time from an official web response’s HTTP Date. See the guide below to choose a source and interpret its limits.

Where the artwork comes from
Lantern Isle, Aquarium, and Chrono Garden are drawn in code. Moonlit Conservatory uses models and day/night renders made in Blender. Rainlight was created with an image-generation tool; Quiet Study was edited from a supplied reference with an image tool, then combined with live clock elements.

How we maintain the guides
Guides describe the tools as implemented, provide examples to try, and link to browser documentation where relevant. Substantial revisions receive an updated date. We do not claim medical benefits or unmeasured performance results. AI tools assist with code, writing, and image production.
How we check the tools
The London–Seoul–Tokyo comparison was run in a browser, and the downloaded CSV and calendar UTC start and end were inspected. Its guide includes the screen, practice files and check date, separating the checked scope from behavior that cannot be guaranteed across every device and app.
View the worked result and sample files
Display settings and favorites are checked through actual screens and reload state. Ticket time distinguishes a dated response sample from a controlled connection-block test. Behavior may differ across browsers and devices; untested hardware behavior is not presented as verified.
