- Calculate Difference: Enter a Start Date and an End Date (both required). Click Calculate Difference to see the total days between them. The end date must be after the start date.
- Add/Subtract Days: Enter a number in the Add/Subtract Days field (positive to add, negative to subtract). Click Calculate Date to get the resulting date from the start date.
- Results: The main result shows the day count or new date. Below, you’ll see a detailed explanation of how the calculation was performed.
- Validation: If dates are invalid or the end date is before the start date, an error message appears. Ensure all inputs are correct before calculating.
Tip: Use the YYYY-MM-DD format for dates (e.g., 2023-01-01). The calculator automatically handles leap years and time zones.
