CountdownText class

A Flutter widget that counts down to a target DateTime and automatically updates every second.

CountdownText(
  target: event.startsAt,
  format: '{d}d {h}h {m}m {s}s',
  style: TextStyle(color: Colors.red, fontWeight: FontWeight.bold),
  onFinished: () => print('Event started!'),
)

Format tokens:

  • {d} → days remaining
  • {h} → hours (0–23)
  • {m} → minutes (0–59)
  • {s} → seconds (0–59)
  • {hh} → hours with leading zero
  • {mm} → minutes with leading zero
  • {ss} → seconds with leading zero
