In this article, we will learn How to create Stopwatch using HTML CSS, and JavaScript. The StopWatch will have the Start, Stop, and Reset functionality.
Prerequisites:
- Basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is needed.
Approach:
- Create one container in which all the elements are present.
- Inside this container add 2 divs that contain all time elements like an hour, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds, and another div contains 3 buttons for start, stop, and reset the stopwatch.
- Now add Styles to center the div container.
- Next, add a JavaScript file in which we will add onclick functions on all three buttons and create another function in which write all the logical code and add value to corresponding hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds, etc.
Example: This example will illustrate how to create StopWatch using HTML CSS and JavaScript.

Javascript
let startBtn = document.getElementById('start');let stopBtn = document.getElementById('stop');let resetBtn = document.getElementById('reset');let hour = 00;let minute = 00;let second = 00;let count = 00;startBtn.addEventListener('click', function () { timer = true; stopWatch();});stopBtn.addEventListener('click', function () { timer = false;});resetBtn.addEventListener('click', function () { timer = false; hour = 0; minute = 0; second = 0; count = 0; document.getElementById('hr').innerHTML = "00"; document.getElementById('min').innerHTML = "00"; document.getElementById('sec').innerHTML = "00"; document.getElementById('count').innerHTML = "00";});function stopWatch() { if (timer) { count++; if (count == 100) { second++; count = 0; } if (second == 60) { minute++; second = 0; } if (minute == 60) { hour++; minute = 0; second = 0; } let hrString = hour; let minString = minute; let secString = second; let countString = count; if (hour < 10) { hrString = "0" + hrString; } if (minute < 10) { minString = "0" + minString; } if (second < 10) { secString = "0" + secString; } if (count < 10) { countString = "0" + countString; } document.getElementById('hr').innerHTML = hrString; document.getElementById('min').innerHTML = minString; document.getElementById('sec').innerHTML = secString; document.getElementById('count').innerHTML = countString; setTimeout(stopWatch, 10); }} |
Output:
Stopwatch
