I'm adding new features to a Go application that saves the current system timestamp into a file. Write a commit summary that describes the changes above.
feat: Add JSON output and improve file handling
Add functionality to output the current timestamp to a JSON file in addition to the existing text file. Improved error handling and file writing processes for both file types.
