All calculations use your device clock and local timezone, so the countdown hits zero exactly when December 5 starts where you are.
Remaining milliseconds are converted to days, hours, minutes, and seconds. Values never go negative and update every second.
Leap years are handled automatically by the calendar — the interval from December 5 to next December 5 is 365 or 366 days as appropriate.
If today is after December 5, the timer counts toward next year’s December 5 and shows how many days ago the last one occurred.
The timer is scoped to this component, accessible, and works on mobile without external libraries.
