The Countdown Timer App is a versatile tool that can be used for various purposes, such as counting down to a specific event or counting up from a particular date and time. This app can be built using various technologies, including Python, HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and the Screenly API. The following sections explain the different options and customizations available for the Countdown Timer App.
Countdown Timer
To create a countdown timer, you can use the Grafana Clock Panel plugin. Set the mode to ‘countdown’ and choose a date and time for the Countdown End Time. The clock will then display and count down to the specified date and time. You can also customize the Countdown End Text and the date/time formatting options.
Alternatively, you can build a countdown timer using Python and an ePaper display, as demonstrated in this Raspberry Pi countdown clock tutorial (distance 0.8439962239745946). This project uses the Waveshare ePaper display and the epd
library to create a countdown timer for Pi Day. You can modify the code to count down to any date and time you prefer.
