Gif countdown generator

The very simple app I have created allows you to generate a countdown timer animated gif depending on the URL parameters you provide. View demo.

URL Parameters (*required)

• time* - Date & time when your countdown will end [e.g. 2016-06-24T20:35]
• frames - number of frames (also number of seconds) the countdown will run before looping [defaults to 30]
• width - width in pixels [defaults to 200]
• height - height in pixels [defaults to 200]
• bg - hex colour code for the background [defaults to 000000]
• color - hex colour code for the text [defaults to ffffff]
• name - filename used for the generated gif [defaults to 'default']

Generate Examples

These trigger a download. Change the URL from /generate to /serve when used in an image tag.
