• Array transformations to filter out timezones without a continental affiliation
• Overwrite moment.js abbreviations to use my own abbreviations object
• DOM manipulation to generate random buttons and to add 500+ timezone names into dropdown
• Ensuring timezones show a random selection of timezones without repeating
• localStorage to save a user’s last selected location
• Activate smooth scrolling up to the Time Card on mobile devices
• setInterval in order to update time every second and clearInterval to avoid conflicts whenever a new timezone is selected
