Tired of manually updating copyright years every January 1st? GetFullYear provides a simple, reliable API to automatically update your footer year, saving you time and embarrassment.
Hey everyone, I'm the founder of getFullYear.com, and I wanted to quickly share why we made this.
I've seen how annoying it is for devs to change that copyright year in website footers every January 1st. It's 2025 and we need a more efficient way to do this.
We built getFullYear.com because we think devs deserve a break from that. We spent a lot of time making an easy API that just works, so you don't have to worry about it. We want you to focus on the stuff that really matters. We've been working hard behind the scenes lately to make sure everything is running smoothly.
I'm here if you have questions, and I'm stoked to make things a little easier for you all!

Thanks for making this!
Is it planned to have a feature that makes the display real-time? If someone visits your website on Dec 31st 23:59 PM, the Copyright should automatically change while celebrating new year. Maybe even add some fireworks and a complementary glass of champagne?
@sh4yy@tsc_home actually getFullYear() method on the Date object is big JavaScript trying to steal customers from Shay. Don't fall for it. Use getfullyear.com.
