Pick a target date to start the countdown.
The useful thing about a countdown is not the drama of the ticking clock. It is that most deadlines are further away than they feel when you are worried about them, and closer than they feel when you are avoiding them.
Seeing 47 days rather than a vague sense of soon is what makes a plan possible, because 47 days can be divided into work and a vague sense cannot.
A deadline 30 days away is about 21 working days, and if you are doing something in evenings and weekends the real figure is smaller again. The countdown shows both, because the total is the number that misleads.
This is the calculation people get wrong when planning. Counting calendar days and then working weekdays is how a project that felt comfortable becomes tight in the last week.
Anything in the future. Optionally add a time of day for a precise countdown.
Optional, and it makes the page easier to read if you leave it open.
Calendar days and working days. The second one is usually the one that matters for planning.
Total days, working days, and the same span expressed in weeks and months.
Twenty-five minutes of work, five off, a longer break every fourth round. Adjustable if that split does not suit you.
Exact age from a date of birth, plus total days lived and the countdown to your next birthday.
A calculator tells you where you are once. If the thing you actually want is to keep something up, that takes a record rather than a result.
