[–] malczak 6y ago ↗ Hi there, my side project created to learn Svelte. To/Since date countdown timers. Private - data is saved in browser storage. No ads, no login, no nothing just time passing by.
[–] darrenwestall 6y ago ↗ What website did you get your imagery from? I’ve seen it before but I’ve lost the link!Cool site too, bookmarked :) [–] malczak 6y ago ↗ Thanks! For opening graphics I've used https://undraw.co
[–] Raed667 6y ago ↗ Cool idea love the simple UI.Couple of notes:- The date picker is not super keyboard friendly, let me type to go faster than a select.- You can save the event on some basic server and generate a uuid to share/edit them, that way i can link to my countdown. [–] malczak 6y ago ↗ Thanks for you feedback - I assumed date picker will be easier for user. Interesting to hear the other way around would be better.When it comes to persistency - maybe I will add it some point, but no plans at this point

[–] nanobyte109 6y ago ↗ The fact that it has the mm/dd/yyyy format makes me dislike the website [–] malczak 6y ago ↗ I fully understand this - localisation is on it's way. [–] malczak 6y ago ↗ OK.. so give it a second try ;) formatting is now based on detected browser locale. [–] nanobyte109 6y ago ↗ Thanks!But it still shows the date as mm/dd/yyyy format on the top right of the event box.BTW you dont need momentjs, you can use Intl.DateTimeFormat https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/JavaScript/Referen... [–] malczak 6y ago ↗ My bad - bug fixedThanks for pointing me to Intl formatting - I will probably migrate in next iteration.

Couple of notes:
- The date picker is not super keyboard friendly, let me type to go faster than a select.
- You can save the event on some basic server and generate a uuid to share/edit them, that way i can link to my countdown.
