# TimeSince plugin for jQuery ![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-green.svg) ![Review Board](https://img.shields.io/badge/Review%20Board-d0e6ff?label=reviewed%20with) **GitHub:** https://github.com/beanbaginc/jquery-timesince **Status:** Maintained / released / used in production jquery-timesince is a [[jQuery]] plugin that works like [[Django]]'s [timesince filter](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/builtins/#timesince). It will display a fuzzy date/time that shows how long it has been since a given date/time. For example, "16 minutes ago" or "3 years, 2 months ago". As the page remains open, each of the timestamps will update periodically (defaults to every minute), so that the user always has a good idea as to how long it has been since... whatever. This plugin was partly based on the excellent [timeago](http://timeago.yarp.com/) plugin. It was rewritten in order to match the behavior and output of Django's timesince filter.
