How do I add a count-up counter to my website?

Set the start date, an optional time and a label, choose a theme, then press "Copy embed code" and paste the snippet into your page. It adds an iframe that loads a live counter, so there is nothing to install and no script to keep updated. The counter ticks in each visitor's browser.

How is the time since a date worked out?

The counter walks the real calendar to count whole years and months first, so month lengths and leap years are handled correctly rather than assuming every month is 30 days. The leftover is then split into weeks and days, and the hours, minutes and seconds are counted from the exact start moment.

What are the milestones?

They are round day counts people like to mark, such as 100, 1,000 and 10,000 days. A milestone lights up once you pass it, and the ones ahead show how many days are left until you reach them.

How to use it

1
Pick the start date

Choose the date you are counting from, such as a sobriety date, an anniversary or a start date. Add a time if you want the seconds to line up.
2
Add a label

Give it a name like "Sober" or "Together" so the counter and the embed read clearly. This is optional.
3
Copy the embed code

Choose a light or dark theme, then press "Copy embed code" to get a snippet you can paste into any page, with the live counter built in.
