A very simple webpage countdown for M, with some specifics about how she likes it to be counted; now expanded to read data from a CSV or Google Spreadsheet, available on the internet.
Simply enter the URL to a CSV file or Google Spreadsheet, and click "Submit".
If using a Google Spreadsheet, make sure it is shared with "Anyone with the link".
Go to MCountdown here or the GitHub Pages hosted one here.
The CSV or Google Spreadsheet must have at least the following format, with any number of rows:
Title | Date |
---|---|
<TITLE> | <TARGET_DATE> |
... | ... |
The <TITLE> is the name you want to display as that countdown's title. |
|
The <TARGET_DATE> can be any date (and time) you want for the countdown. |
You can optionally add a "Skip Weekends" column to skip Saturdays and Sundays (default is FALSE
):
Title | Date | Skip Weekends |
---|---|---|
<TITLE> | <TARGET_DATE> | TRUE | FALSE |
... | ... | ... |
You can optionally add any number of "Skip Date" columns to skip those specific dates:
Title | Date | Skip Date | Skip Date... |
---|---|---|---|
<TITLE> | <TARGET_DATE> | <DATE> | <DATE> |
... | ... | ... | ... |
Here's a simple example and what that would look like:
Title | Date | Skip Weekends | Skip Date | Skip Date |
---|---|---|---|---|
Vacation | 1/1/24 | TRUE | 12/30/23 | |
Application Due | 3/2/24 4:00 PM | FALSE | 12/30/23 | 2/2/24 |
