An event is an action occurred by the user. Therefore, many functions and methods can be set according to those actions performed. When these actions are defined for an event interface, we term those as the event properties. There are various predefined event properties in jQuery. Here, let's discuss the event.timestamp Property.

The event.timestamp is a built-in property in jQuery. This property helps us to get the number of milliseconds passed since Jan 1, 1970. It returns the same when the event is triggered.
