If you want to make a function or a piece of code in JavaScript execute every minute, you can use the setInterval function. The setInterval function in JavaScript is used to repeatedly execute a specified function at fixed intervals. An important detail is that, the setInterval function schedules the first execution after the specified interval has passed. For an example this can be useful if you need to update some elements periodically.

  2.     // Your code here
  3.     console.log("Executing every minute");
  4. }

  6. // Execute immedietly, then the setInterval function schedules the first execution after the specified interval has passed.
  7. myFunction();
  8. setTimeout(function() {
  9.     // Call the function initially
  10.     myFunction();
  11. }, 60000);
