How it works

The widget is a lightweight <iframe> that loads a self-contained countdown page from CountdownsHQ. It runs entirely in the visitor's browser, so the timer is always accurate to their local clock, and it costs you nothing to host.

Options

  • theme — auto (matches the visitor), light or dark.
  • country — anchor the target time to a country's time zone (e.g. ?country=vietnam).
  • title — set ?title=0 to hide the holiday name.
