# Countdown Generator (Flask + Jinja) A tiny two-page app: - `/` – a setup form to pick the target date/time and styles. - `/countdown?…` – the shareable countdown page, configured entirely from query params. ## Quick start ```bash python3 -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate pip install flask python app.py # open http://127.0.0.1:5000/ ``` ## URL Parameters - `target` — ISO-8601 local datetime (e.g. `2025-09-06T12:00`) - `title` — heading text - `scheme` — `dark` or `light` - `accent` — CSS color (e.g. `#ff6b6b` or `hsl(260 90% 60%)`) - `fg` / `bg` — text/background colors - `radius` — number (px) for rounded corners - `shadow` — `none|sm|md|lg` - `font` — CSS font-family string - `millis` — `1` to show milliseconds - `rounded_unit` — `none|minutes|hours|days` (rounds to nearest) ## Example ``` /countdown?title=Ignacio%27s%20Trip&target=2025-09-06T12:00&scheme=dark&accent=%238b5cf6&radius=20&shadow=lg&font=system-ui&millis=1 ``` ## Notes - The generator reflects any params back into the form, so you can tweak and re-generate links. - No external assets required. Everything is pure HTML/CSS/JS with Flask+Jinja. - The countdown runs with `requestAnimationFrame` and updates at ~60Hz (with ms on if enabled). - If no `target` is provided, `/countdown` redirects to `/`.
